    Windows Defender is being Managed by Administrator


    hi my name is Santosh Paudel. I am currently using the windows 10 home version. recently I am unable to see the virus and threat protection option on windows security plus when I try to scan hard disk using defender. a box pops up which reads " Your IT administrator has limited access to some areas of this app, and the item you tried to access is not available. Contact It helpdesk for more information"[Original Title: windows defender]

    :)

    Windows Defender isn't initializing.

    Hi Abdul,

    Thank you for using Windows 10.

    Sorry for the delayed reply. I suggest you to Set Windows Defender to Automatic - You can set the Windows Defender service to Automatic, Disabled or Manual. Setting it to automatic might solve the problem. Follow these
    steps:

    • Click Start > type services in the Search box > click Services in the Programs list.
    • Search for Windows defender.
    • Double-click Windows Defender, and click Automatic in the start-up box > click OK.
    Also, follow the below mentioned steps and check:

    • Open the Task manager. Here’s a tip: Press CTRL+Shift+ESC.
    • Click File > Run New Task
    • Make sure you have a check mark beside “Create this task with administrative privileges”
    • Type CMD
    • Type the following 2 commands at the CMD prompt:

      dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

      sfc /scannow

    • Close the CMD window
    Keep us posted on the status of the issue and we’ll be glad to help.

    Windows Defender is being Managed by Administrator

    "This setting is managed by your administration" Windows Defender

    Could it be that key combo has been reassigned by something else?

    And have you otherwise verified the ALT key is working?

    And it may be that ALT + Enter no longer works in Win 10 for whatever obscure reason - it's not a Windows key combination, but specific to programs. Why am I suggesting this? Because on a superficial search, others are having problems with it too...

    Why doesnt Alt+Enter fullscreen work in Windows 10? - Super User
    - suggests perhaps using F11
