    Windows Defender automatically disabled

    Hi Ahmad,

    Thank you for responding.

    I suggest you to place the computer in safe mode and check if the Windows Defender works.

    Method 1:

    Step 1: Start computer in safe mode.


    • Type Settings in the search box on the desktop, select
      Settings.

    • Here select Change pc settings and then
      General.

    • Scroll down to Advanced startup, click
      Restart now.

    • Click on Troubleshoot, Advanced options, and Startup Settings.

    • Click Restart, select
      Safe mode and then press Enter.

    Step 2: Try to
    run the Windows Defender in safe mode
    .

    Steps:

    • Press Windows key and type Windows Defender.
    • Right click on it and select Run as Administrator.
    • It may prompts you to enter the password.

    Method 2: If the issue still persists, place the computer in normal mode and check for the Windows Defender services.

    Step 1: Place the computer in normal mode.

    • Press Windows + R keys to open
      Run command.
    • Type msconfig and press
      Enter
      .
    • In the System Configuration
      window, click on General tab.
    • Select Start-up selection as Normal startup, click on Apply and Ok.
    • Follow onscreen instructions.

    Step 2: Once you are in normal mode, I suggest you to check for the
    Windows Defender services.

    • Press Windows + R keys to open
      Run command.
    • Type services.msc and press
      Enter
      .
    • Search for Windows Defender, right click on it and
      start the service.
    • Also, set the Startup type to
      Automatic.
    • Do the same for Windows Defender Network Inspection Service.
    • Now check if you are able to access Windows Defender.

    Hope it helps. Kindly update the status of this issue, we will be happy to help you.
