Howto manually disable Windows Defender self.Windows10

submitted by Reddit___Police

In the latest build you can only temporarily disable Windows Defender. Here’s how to permanently disable it:

  1. Run gpedit.msc
  2. Navigate to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Defender
  3. Double click on “Turn off Windows Defender”
  4. Select “Enabled” > Apply > OK
  5. Close Group Policy Editor

Beware, you are now unprotected.

 

An alternative to disabling Windows Defender is to modify the way it is scheduled.

  1. Run taskschd.msc
  2. Navigate to Task Scheduler Library > Microsoft > Windows > Windows Defender
  3. Double click “Windows Defender Scheduled Scan”
  4. Navigate to the “Conditions” tab
  5. Click “Start the task only if the computer is idle for…” and set the minimum idle time and delay that must be present prior to starting a scan.
  6. Click “Stop if the computer ceases to be idle” to prevent Windows Defender form hogging resources when you need them.
