    Windows Defender Periodic Scan keeps turning on.


    Hello, I use Bitdefender AV, and since a couple of weeks, the system sometimes shows the Windows Defender Scan notification on startup. I disable it, but it keeps turining on.I said since a couple of weeks, because I suspect some Windows Update changed/screwed something. I didn't have this issue before.I prefer to not deal with registry and group policies. Can you just fix it, as you screwed it?

    :)
