Today, I would like to talk to you about whether windows defender can be closed, many people may not know much about it. In order to make you understand better, the editor has summarized the following contents for you. I hope you can get something according to this article.

Windows defender is an antivirus program from Microsoft, and Windows 7 and above are built into the operating system. Although its existence is good for the security of the system, it will stutter slightly when there are a lot of exe files, and everyone's computers are basically equipped with protective software, so some users ask whether windows defender can be turned off.

1. Deactivate Windows Defender

As long as the real-time monitoring of Windows Defender is disabled, it will not affect the system. Users can go to the Windows Defender Security Center, find "virus and threat Protection Settings", and turn off options such as "Real-time Protection". Older versions of Win10 simply turned off switches such as "real-time protection" in setting → updates and secure → Windows Defender.

II. Close the Windows Defender Security Center

The related operations of system services can be implemented through the registry, and the operation of windows defender shutdown is no exception. The specific methods for shutting down Windows Defender Security Center are as follows:

1. Enter regedit in the Cortana search bar and press enter to enter the registry editor.

2. Navigate to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SYSTEM\ CurrentControlSet\ Services\ SecurityHealthService

3. Find the DWORD (32-bit) value on the right, named Start.

Shut down the Windows Defender Security Center

4. Modify the numerical data to 4.

5. Restart File Explorer, or log out and log in / restart the system.

So much for the technique of completely shutting down Windows Defender in the Windows10 system. If you follow the above steps, you will see that the Windows Defender Security Center no longer appears, and with the deactivation of Windows Defender, the built-in security software will not disturb you. Of course, if the user installs third-party anti-software or security software, Windows Defender will be shut down automatically.

After reading the above, do you have any further understanding of whether windows defender can be shut down? If you want to know more knowledge or related content, please follow the industry information channel, thank you for your support.
