| | Do you have another Anti Virus running as well as Defender? If you do not, I would suggest the following: You may wish to consider installing Microsoft Security Essentials, which combines both Defender malware scanning as well as active AV scanning. Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for Windows Note: Upon installation of MSE, Defender will be automatically disabled. This is a normal function. |

| | I also have Avira .... go into services by typing services.msc click on the 'gear icon' > scroll down to Windows Defender > right click on the line > choose properties, then click on the button "startup type" and disable. Stop the service. You don't need WD if you have the paid version of Avira. |
