  1. Win 10 Defender settings


    I run a third party antivirus, malware, pc health etc. software. I've been using for years and it works great. I have always turned windows defender off to avoid double scans and collisions between the two. Since the last cumulative update K4284835, I keep getting a lot of defender definition updates which don't always install correctly the first time. My issue is that windows keeps turning on the Defender features I have turned off (especially the real time scan). This turns my machine into a large paper weight.


    How do I permanently disable windows defender anti virus and other features?

    :)

    AMD FX OC'ers Club

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
