    Window Defender Account Protection misstated


    I already have my pin set, but it stated not. After I clicked it, to set up my Windows Hello pin, the windows just disappear without any helpful changes after I enter my PIN which required my PIN to create a new PIN‍Here some screenshots I took sequentially. *Here, windows collapsed after I enter my PIN, without any changes.*So, basically, my Windows is secured by PIN but apparently, Windows Defender doesn't think so. I can leave it if it won't make any trouble, but the red cross sign on Windows Security icon is kinda annoying for me. Any solution/advice? Apologies for some langu

    :)

    Windows defender real time protection cant be turned on.

    Go to Security and Maintenance, look in 'Security' and see what program is listed under Virus Protection. Windows Defender will not be enabled and functioning properly if there is a program other than Windows Defender listed.

    You tried all suggestions in my previous post and Windows Defender “real time protection”
    still will not turn on?

    Did you try everything suggested in Problems
    starting Windows Defender in Windows 8/8.1/10
    to include (but not limited to) running SFC, scanning for malware and running the software removal tools for any security software (AVG,
    McAfee, Norton, whatever) that may have previously been on the computer followed by a reboot? List of
    anti-malware product removal tools
