    I have MSE installed. Should I remove Windows Defender, and if so, how? I can't find it in Programs and Features.
    Jaycee must be a mind reader. She answerd your question before you asked.
    lol, I did that already. I still get the message at startup with Defender disabled.
    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 :).

and doesn't seem to want to enable. Question is; do I need it to be on, or CAN it be on, considering I am running MS Security Essentials?
My question is whether or not this is normal. More importantly, is it safe? Should I turn Defender back on manually or use just MSE? Thanks!
