  You are running Microsoft Security Essentials, AVG, Norton or McAfee?
  If you run one of those, she didn't have Defender. It's
  good, not bad. Not only is there potential conflict, but there is no
  reason to have both; essentially, they have something very similar
  for the Defender integrated and running both at once will hurt your
  performance and create the risk of problems that are contrary to each
  others.

  You are running Microsoft Security Essentials? If so, it turns out
  Defender off the coast and it's good, not bad. It turns off the Defender because
  It contains the same features.

  There are a few other anti-virus programs that do the same
  thing. If you are not running Microsoft Security Essentials, which
  virus protection do you use?

• I received 3 phone calls informing me that Windows Defender is hurting my computer and they will refund my money.

  * Original title: Windows Defender

  I received 3 phone calls informing me that Windows Defender is hurting my computer and they will refund my money. He also wants me to turn on my computer... I put him up until I can get the information... is it a hoax?  Thanks for any help...

  Hello

  Windows Defender is the antivirus integrated in Windows 8/8.1/10 and do NOT harm your computer.

  It protects your computer.

  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

  Here's the advice I give on this type of phone calls:

  It's a scam.

  We have all the errors and warnings in our Event Viewer, which is another ploy they use to scare you

  Either these so-called "Microsoft" Tech companies want to sell you a worthless software, or remote access to your computer to try to steal your credit card and bank information and also achieve an identity theft on you.

  You are the only person who knows if you gave them remote access.

  If you gave them remote access and you do Internet banking, contact your bank, to explain, and change passwords.

  If you use your online credit card, cancel and get a new one issued to you.

  And the only way that willl you know that you are free to them is to backup your data and do a clean install of your operating system.

  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

  And Microsoft does not contact you unless YOU have made prior arrangements with them to do.

  There is an article in the link I'm you provide at the end of this one

  Read this Information from Microsoft:

  "Avoid scams to phone for tech support.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/online-privacy/avoid-phone-scams.aspx

  Don't be fooled of unsolicited calls. Don't provide personal information.

  Here are some of the organizations that cyber criminals claim to come:

  • Helpdesk Windows

  • Windows repair center

  • Microsoft technical support

  • Microsoft technical support

  • Windows Support Group Technical Department

  • Microsoft Research and Development Team (team of Microsoft R & D)

• Windows Defender appears each time computer is turned on

  Everytime I turn on my computer windows defender appears saying that it is turned off. Windows Defender, I opened and he was selected to be marketed. So I checked the box that said turn on windows Defender but whenever I have turn off the computer or restart it, it says that windows defender is stopped. Why this is happening and what can do?

  Hi Babyblues221,

  From your description, it seems plausible that another program can be disable Windows Defender.  You use a different type of antivirus/security software?  These are often the causes of Windows Defender turned off.  You can try a "clean boot" to verify that it is or is not caused by another application.  To check this, reactivate Windows Defender, follow these steps:

  To perform a clean boot on a computer that is running Windows Vista, follow these steps.

  1. Click on launch , t
  2. Type msconfig in the box start looking for and then press ENTER.
     
  • If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.
  • On the the general tab, click on Selective startup.
  • Under Selective startup, turn it off box load startup items.
  • Click on the Services tab, select him hide all Microsoft Services check box and then click on Disable all.
  • Click on OK.
  • When you are prompted, click on restart.
  • After the computer starts, start the program or game and see if the problem is resolved.
    If Windows Defender is on, there is another program that starts and stops this return.  You may need to try to reactivate each non-Microsoft service individually to find the app problem.
  • Some services may temporarily lose functionality when you perform a clean boot procedure. When you restore the settings, the functionality will be restored. However, the original error message or behavior may return.
  • Be aware that if the computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may prevent you from complete the clean boot procedure. You may need to contact the aid system administrator if you cannot perform a clean boot.

  I hope this helps!

  If you have MSE, it will prevent Windows Defender to run.

  MSE is an anti-virus, anti-spam and Anti-Malware program all in one. It's light and very user-friendly Windows. It also contains the same functionality of Windows Defender, making it unnecessary and it won't work because it is not needed.
