rawyolks Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 What's the best way to permanently disable Windows Defender Antivirus on 21h1? Is this regfix still the best and at the same time 100% permanent solution? https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/5918-how-turn-off-microsoft-defender-antivirus-windows-10-a.html Code: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender DisableAntiSpyware DWORD (delete) or 0 = On 1 = Off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erp-ster0 Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Defender Control app - 'nuff said no reg fix - just use this app to shut off MS Defender and move on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haris_sane69 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I always disable Microsoft Defender Antivirus using Group Policy on my Windows 10 Pro system. Spoiler https://www.windowscentral.com/how-permanently-disable-windows-defender-windows-10?amp In addition to this, I also disable the Defender notifications in the startup tab Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBP Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Remember that Group Policy is not available on Windows 10 Home edition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UberGeek Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Have disabled Windows Defender at multi levels . . . through all possible options on the Settings, group policies, etc., etc. On my 20H2, have disabled the background services, as well.
