  1. Windows Defender


    Hello,


    I had previously installed panda for antivirus but when I uninstalled it and when I checked the windows defender and it was disabled and I'm not able to turn on real time protection and I have deleted the registry and other things but nothing has worked.

    :)

  2. Windows Defender problem

    Hi Ernst,

    To troubleshoot this issue, we suggest that you check the Windows Defender service if it's running. If you are using a third party spyware/malware program, it may disable the Windows Defender service. To do this, please follow the steps below:

    • Press Windows + R key.
    • Type services.msc.
    • Right-click Windows Defender service and click
      Start.

    Let us know the result.

    I would suggest you to open Windows defender and add exclusions and check if it helps. Follow the steps to add exclusions in windows Defender.


    • Type Windows defender settings in the search bar and press enter
