  1. Wasn't defender supposed to turn off by itself having Webroot?


    I made the upgrade from 8.1 to win 10 and dabbing around with it now. I had latest version of webroot AV installed. After the transition, it seems that both defender and webroot are running at the same time. Now obviously I don't want two protection system. It'll slow crap down. Defender hasn't automatically turned off. Do I really have to go through manual turn offs through registry and junk?

    :)

  2. How to fix KB2267602 (definition 1.211.411.0) - Error 0x80070643

    I'm also getting this error

    Background - after November Update Defender was (initially) turned on. This despite the fact that I have Norton installed (and running) and as I understand it, Defender is supposed to automatically disable itself in this situation.

    After a further restart Defender did turn itself off but not before Windows Update attempted to download the latest definitions - and now continues to do so - failing to install the update each time.

    I note today that Microsoft have pulled the 1511 update from their ISO site - seemingly without an explanation.

    Related perhaps?

  3. Windows Defender keeps turning off

    I have had Windows 10 since summer of 2017. I've used Windows Defender almost exclusively. I used Spybot for a bit, but it wasn't working properly, so I removed it fully and turned Defender back on (this was last year). For the last 2ish months, it keeps
    turning itself off. I am in no way turning it off. I have no other spyware/malware/virus programs on my PC. This is getting very aggravating. To make things worse, today it wouldn't let me turn it back on. Any help would be appreciated.

    I believe you have to do the manual turn offs. If you try and just disable real time scanning via the UI, W10 nags about it in the notification area. I was zipping a file the other day and defenders CPU use shot up quite a bit.

    It may be that Windows Defender was not turned off because Webroot SecureAnywhere products are designed to get along with other antivirus. To turn off Windows Defender see the tutorial:

    When I upgraded my PC to windows 10 Defender got turned off. When I upgraded the laptop to Windows 10 Defender was still running at same time as Webroot. I then un-installed Webroot and then run their clean up tool WRUpgradeTool.exe. When I then re-installed Webroot Defender was deactivated.
