    Windows Security Virus & Threat Protection using Malwarebytes


    On my Win10 PC, i have Malwarebytes configured to provide me with Windows Security's Virus & Threat Protection.


    The Windows Security icon always loads in the system tray before the Malwarebytes icon.


    Most of the time, on startup, the Windows Security's icon loads with a green check mark on it, showing that virus and threat protection are enabled.


    But sometimes, it loads with a caution flag indicating that Virus and Threat Protection are mysteriously turned OFF. And, long after the Malwarebytes icon appears indicating I'm now protected by Malwarebytes, if I take no action, it can take anywhere from 5-20 minutes before the windows security icon's caution flag finally turns into a green check mark.


    In those cases, I have to go into Windows Security and turn it on, manually.


    This is very unsettling. I shouldn't have to monitor it on every startup, and manually turn it ON in case it fails to turn ON by itself. Is there a way to permanently lock Windows Security's Virus & threat protection ON?


    Better yet, i wonder... if I could make Malwarebytes always load, first, it might fix the issue - but how/where do I control the loading order of items in the System Tray?

    :)

    security - virus & threat protection

    My computer is showing virus & threat protection is managed by my organization. We are a small office and each computer should only have Windows Defender running. We also had Malwarebytes. I deleted Malwarebytes but now I cannot run Defender. I don't
    see any other software being used for virus right now.

    Virus threat protection

    Hi Valentin

    As an alternative approach, you can allow that utility through the Controlled Folder Access section of WIndows 10 security . . .

    Open Windows Defender Security Center

    Go to Virus & threat protection - Virus & threat protection settings

    Scroll down to Controlled folder access

    From there, you can add Dell Data Vault to the list of safe or allowed apps to prevent it from being blocked

    Please do not leave Controlled Folder Access turned off permanently
