    Windows Defender

    How are you trying to open it?
    If from the icon in the tray, right click > open
    or
    All Settings > Update & Security > Windows Defender > Open Windows Defender Security Centre

    Which 'Defender' are you trying to open? Double-clicking on the Defender icon in the notification try does nothing. This seems to be a design oversight, but right-click brings up 'Open' which opens the Windows Defender Security Center.

    The old UI you're used to from previous versions, and the new Defender Security Center in the Creators Update. There's just the one Defender service running, but there's two ways to see what it's doing and control it, the old way and the new way.
