Windows 10: Virus and Threat Protection not opening

Hello. I've had this issue for the last couple of days where every time I try to open `Virus and Threat Protection` it instantly closes. This is only happening for Virus and Threat Protection and all of the other apps work fine. Basically what happens is I double click on the app and the second it opens it immediately closes, no error message or anything. Does anyone happen to know what could be causing this? If so, that would be great!

Hi Valentin

As an alternative approach, you can allow that utility through the Controlled Folder Access section of WIndows 10 security . . .

Open Windows Defender Security Center

Go to Virus & threat protection - Virus & threat protection settings

Scroll down to Controlled folder access

From there, you can add Dell Data Vault to the list of safe or allowed apps to prevent it from being blocked

Please do not leave Controlled Folder Access turned off permanently

Virus and threat protection has stopped and will not restart, Windows 10 ver 1709, antimalware client ver 4.12.16299.15 . SuperAntiSpyware installed.

I have tried most of the suggestions from the support pages, all have been ineffective. Any suggestions
