Windows 10: Turn On or Off Windows Defender Real-time Protection in Windows 10

Hello brink yes i do have 3rd party install its called Malwarebytes Anti Malware home (premium) but i install that because my windows defender wasn't working.

 

MBAM wouldn't disable Windows Defender.

Double check using the tutorial below to see if you may have a group policy enabled that disables Windows Defender.

Group Policy Editor - Quickly View Enabled Policies in Windows - Windows 7 Help Forums

 

Yes i have turn off Windows defender from Group Policy Editor because it coudn't install some updates from Windows defender Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80070643: Definition Update for Windows Defender - KB2267602 (Definition 1.213.1210.0). Also when i try to run the windows defender service it won't start its acting really strange...

 

That would be why its settings are grayed out then. If you set the group policy back to "Not Configured", the settings should be enabled again.

 

hey Brink i turn back it on from group policy every time i try to turn it on back from program i get this error i tried restarting my pc its not helpfull thats why i turn off windows defender from group policy can u help me please.

 

Double check to make sure that you have the services below enabled, set to "Automatic", and started.

If your system shows as clean with MBAM, then you may need to do a repair install, refresh, or reset to fix this. *Sad

Repair Install Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade

Refresh Windows 10

Reset Windows 10

 

does refresh or reset deletes all my games and programs?

 

Yes, those two would. I would recommend a repair install.

Be sure to always back up anything that you do not want to lose to be extra safe though.

 

you know what im just going to turn off windows defender from Local Group Policy Editor and use my Malwarebytes program because i dont feel like losing my datas.. and games till i found a way to fix this problem is that a bad idea?

 

The main thing is to make sure that your system is clean by performing a full scan with MBAM.

If it's clean, then you'll be fine not using Windows Defender, and using MBAM instead.

 

i scan with MBAM and i found thise two Registry Keys: 2Trojan.Agent, HKLM\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS NT\CURRENTVERSION\IMAGE FILE EXECUTION OPTIONS\MRT.exe, Quarantined, [9bde31124b3fcf67160c05712fd509f7],
