Windows Defender turned off at startup

[nabilalk]

Each time I restart the computer, Windows Defender pops up and asks me to turn it on. After I turn it on and restart, the same thing happens again. How can I get rid of this annoying message? I wanted to try to reinstall Defender, but I can't find it using Add/Remove Programs or Revo Uninstaller.

Thanks for the help, and Happy Thanksgiving to all!

You have a conflict with Windows Defender and your A/V and or firewall.

Suggestion. Uninstall your A/V and get Microsoft MSE Miscrosoft Security Essentials. Made to work with Windows 7. You will not even need defender once you switch.

Hi mate, I am using NOD32 (Real time protection) and MSE (not real-time Protection) do you think it's enough?

Don't know anything about NOD32, and that is the important one, since it is real time. I do feel that MSE, alone is enough.

The best protection, however, is not MSE, ord NOD32, best protection is just a little common sense. If you are intelligent enought to ask the above question, you have the common sense to be safe on the net. The A/V is just your backup.

that is so true if you pay some attention online you should be safe.

Go into services (type Services.msc in the start search box)... scroll down to Windows Defender, right click the line, choose properties, then set it to 'disabled'.

I have MSE installed. Should I remove Windows Defender, and if so, how? I can't find it in Programs and Features.

Did that already, it still gives me the message at startup.

Jaycee must be a mind reader. She answerd your question before you asked.

First make sure you have a system restore point and a system image before you try this. But do this to get rid of defender

I had the same problem recently, all I done was open CCleaner and went to Tools>Startup>Windows and deleted the startup entry for it .
