Windows Defender Real-time protection

Thankfully we can enforce Defender’s Group Policy settings without using the Group Policy Editor, and without merging a downloaded REG file
– and the alternative is amazingly quick and easy. I’m going to recommend against disabling Defender with the DisableAntiSpyware DWORD, because I’m seeing some really bizarre behavior when I use a REG command for this in Version 1709.
On the other hand, there doesn’t seem to be any problem at all with turning Defender’s real-time protection on or off with these REG commands:

Click on the Start button and select Windows Powershell (Admin) and then copy, paste, and enter the command:

Turn off Windows Defender’s real-time protection:

REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Real-Time Protection" /v DisableRealtimeMonitoring /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

Turn on Windows Defender’s real-time protection:

REG DELETE "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Real-Time Protection" /v DisableRealtimeMonitoring

 

Cant turn on real time protection

I’m not sure what’s going on there, but you might want to run some scans in order to make sure that malware hasn’t assumed the role of administrator and turned off Defender’s real-time protection with Group Policy:

Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool:

Emsisoft Emergency Kit:

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (free version only):

Then you can use these REG commands to toggle the Group Policy setting for Windows Defender’s real-time protection.

Click on the Start button and select Windows Powershell (Admin) and then copy, paste, and enter the command:

Turn off Windows Defender’s real-time protection:

REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Real-Time Protection" /v DisableRealtimeMonitoring /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

Turn on Windows Defender’s real-time protection:

REG DELETE "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Real-Time Protection" /v DisableRealtimeMonitoring
