PC reset Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Hello there! I have a small question. I know when Emsisoft has been installed Windows defender is disabled. But when restarting my computer it takes a long time(about 30 seconds to 1 minute) before defender is disabled again. I even use a SSD and i7 but still i takes that long. Is this process going to improve? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHvFl Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 If you have windows 10 pro or above disable windows defender from group policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank H Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 PC reset, this is managed by Window, nothing we can do to speed this up, unfortunately. You could try to disable Defender manually to avoid this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHvFl Posted October 15, 2016 Report Share Posted October 15, 2016 No I just use Windows 10 home. But thanks for the suggestion Try the registry way then. Note i haven't tried it so backup your registry before changing anything in case something goes wrong. http://www.ghacks.net/2015/10/25/how-to-disable-windows-defender-in-windows-10-permanently/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter2150 Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 I wouldn't mess with the registry. There should be an easier way. 1 Open the gui and click on protection 2 Untick the hide fully trusted applications. 3 Scroll down and search for the Windows Defender exe file 4 highlight it and click on Edit Rule 5 Then click the Always block this application(Impossible to run) button That should stop it.

GT500 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Not if the Windows Defender service starts first. You could also cause your system to freeze by doing that. Doesn't ShutUp10 have an option to disable Windows Defender? Or does it not work anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
