Since Vista,Microsoft Defender is included with Windows . It’s a small piece of software that runs in the background to help protect ,your computer from malware (malicious software) like viruses, spyware, and other potentially unwanted software. Some spyware protection is better than none, and it’s built in and free! But… if you are already running something that provides great anti-malware protection, defender will probably wasting precious resources , there’s no need to have more than one application running at a time.
The problem with all Defender versions in Windows Vista and above is it’s integrated into the operating system and installs by default with no visible or hidden option to uninstall. Many people are looking for ways to disable or remove it from their system as they prefer to use other software , for example on Windows 8 and 10 you cannot turn off Microsoft Defender completely anymore , A click on Settings in Microsoft Defender opens the control panel for the program in the new Windows Settings application. You can turn the program’s real-time protection off temporarily, but if it’s off for a while Windows will turn it back on automatically. It is unclear why Microsoft made the decision to change the behavior of Microsoft Defender in this regard. What is certain however is that it will annoy users who want to disable it permanently on the computer they are working on. Defender Control is a small Portable freeware which will allow you to disable Microsoft Defenderr in Windows 10 completely.

解壓縮就被 Defender 過濾掉了………………
defender delete this app
Defender Control has CMD (command line) support
can i run it and display it with CMD?
Great! – thanks to this nifty app I’m finally able to defend myself against the snooping and noisy Defender …Microsofts number one backdoor to my private digital life. THANKS!
Already very good, thank you for your continuous update
False Positive Issue
The false positive issue doesn’t occur in Defender Control v1.6
After installing v1.8, this is the first time I had ever encountered this issue, it’s not a big issue though, I can easily just tell defender to allow it on my device.
False positives, we cannot do anything about this
FYI, in my Windows 10 20H2, last update: May 11, 2021—KB5003173 (OS Builds 19041.985 and 19042.985), DefenderDisable 1.8 blocked vy Defender. Reinstalled ver 1.6.
Possible cause?
@ Yılmaz Alpaslan : Fixing software according to insider versions is risky because they are quite variable. If the same error persists in the final version we will fix it.
@ A Long Time User : The number shows the status when it is first uploaded.Sometimes the number increases and then drops back to zero. It is very difficult to follow, users can click and see the current status , we do not know how we can find a solution for this.
Hi I am using windows 10 insider 21376.1, even if i disable defender it turns back on after reboot hope you will find a solution.
(Merhabalar Windows 10 insider 21376.1 kullanıyorum, defender’ı devre dışı bıraksam bile yeniden başlatmadan sonra geri açılıyor umarım bir çözüm bulursunuz.)
Hello, your button for VirusTotal detection is, by all means, fake.
I’m not saying this has a virus, what I’m saying is you should seriously consider updating your website to properly reflect on the detections so users can make their own educated decision before downloading.
Their is a rather serious disconnect when the button says "Detection Ratio: 0" at all times, then when they click on it their are 12, false positive or not this is rather disconcerting.
@bluestack : Thank you
@Emanuele : Don’t think so , just wait for stable release
i stumbled this app on accident…so far so good…if wd stay off long term…
after i use dc to off it , it was still there after restart like consume less memory in task manager and virus and threat protection sect blanked out in window security …
