• Windows Defender does not illuminate. Said he did not need with MS security essential

  Asked to click on the link to activate MS Windows Defender. By clicking on the link does nothing. It told me that Windows Defender is not necessary when MS Security Essentials is installed and has probably been disabled. Should I remove Windows Defender and use only Security Essentials. Is this correct?

  Hello:

  It is true that you no longer need Windows Defender after installing MSE.

  However, you do not have to uninstall it. It has in fact been disabled. You can delete all of your shortcuts, if you wish.

  Is no longer, you try to run Windows Defender, that's why I recommend you delete your desktop shortcuts and or the menu of the program. Just pretend it isn't there. This isn't hurt anything by remaining installed.

• Do I need antivirus protection if I already use windows Defender?

  original title: Windows defender

  Need me anti-virus protection if I already use windows Defender. And why windows Defender stops whenever I turned off the computer?

  Defender is not an Anti Virus program, it's an Anti Spyware/Maleware program. Yes, you need an Anti Virus program to use along side of it. To answer why it turns off you must provide the details.

• I just installed Windows Defender, but he does not see my Windows XP Security Center. I had to install Microsoft Security Essentials for Windows to see any antivirus. Why?

  I removed Bitdefender because it slowed my computer down a lot. I then installed Windows Defender and updated and scanned the computer (no problem) and said it was "protect my computer". But the Windows Security Center does not see any antivirus, until I installed Microsoft Security Essentials. Why? And are two antivirus programs now runmning together?

  Microsoft Security Essentials need to uninstall Windows Defender when it is installed. If youshould not uninstall via Add/Remove programs. See the following topics:
