  How can I turn off "Windows defender"?

  Hello Steve,.

  Welcome! Thanks for posting in the HP Support forum.

  Usually, if you install the 3rd AV software part (for example, Kaspersky, Norton, McAfee, Tredn Micro...) it allows to disable Windows Defender. However you can do it manually.

  Several options are described here

• How to turn on windows Defender can not access

  When I try to turn on windows Defender I get message saying Defender has been turned off.

  Go to the Action Center and start from there. It only works if all other AV have been completely uninstalled.  You will need to run McAfee MCPRT if you had formerly McAfee on your computer.  I'll send the link, you can find him if necessary.

• Does anyone know how to turn on Windows Defender

  I can find anywhere on the site of MS how re - download Defender.  I can see on my control panel, and when I try to open it, it just says: it has been turned off.  HOW IN THE WORLD you turn back?  Please?

  You can run an anti-virus program from full time at some point.    Windows Defender is disabled if you install another anti-virus program.

  If you have installed another anti-virus and uninstalled... cool... but most uninstall very well & require you to visit their support pages and download and run the uninstaller or clean tool.

  Windows defender is a part of win8.   You don't need to download it.  It runs automatically unless you disable explicitly its advanced options.   Condition that you don't have another anti-virus running product.
