| | There should be an option in the security centre "I have an anti-virus program that I will monitor myself" or similar that should stop it. If you still get the warning after this then It may be a case of editing the startup task which runs defender but this should not be required |

| | 1: Click Start and in the Start Search box, type services.msc and press Enter. 2: Double Click Windows Defender. Change the Startup type as Disabled and Service status as Stopped.  |

| | Hi John, If you go into action centre and select the option to change action centre settings you should have an option to switch off reporting for spyware programs.  If this does not work then the only thing I could suggest is to let the program run but to set it's excludes list to *.* which will exclude everything |
