How to stop Windows Defender "Real Time Protection" from enabling itself

By itself, that doesn't work for a long time now. Windows 10 Update Assistant doesn't need Windows Update service (wuauserv) running to update Windows 10.

 

Anything could run updates without that service, as the DISM tool doesn't need it for CABs.

 

another method, cmd as admin >gpedit.msc

 

Hi all,
does all the scripts posted on page 1 stop also the smartscreen.exe process of windows 1809?

thanks

 

Smartscreen is another issue/challenge. I use this:

Code:

takeown /f "%WinDir%\System32\smartscreen.exe" /a
icacls "%WinDir%\System32\smartscreen.exe" /grant:r Administrators:F /c
taskkill /im smartscreen.exe /f
del "%WinDir%\System32\smartscreen.exe" /s /f /q

 

For now I'm using the same method but I'm looking to a more "clean" solution to disable it. With this method "sfc /verifyonly" will find integrity problems.

I have EnterpriseS LTSC version, new .195 update. Managed to disable windows defender, but windows defender firewall service (mpssvc) i can't disable (it's listed in services list, fixed in automatic mode). Also i disabled security center and now i can't disable notifications about disabled security center ???

 

Via registry, you can also disable "Base Filtering Engine". If you disable "Network Store Interface Service", it will also disable WDF.

Code:

reg add "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MpsSvc" /v "Start" /t REG_DWORD /d "4" /f

Code:

reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Notifications\Settings" /v "NOC_GLOBAL_SETTING_TOASTS_ENABLED" /t REG_DWORD /d "0" /f

You can also enable security center and disable all security messages, then disable it again.

 

Right now I disable all the defender stuff via registry edits, but I'm looking at using the MSMG Toolkit to remove it altogether, haven't tried it yet, but might be a better solution. Can also remove smartscreen; https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/msmg-toolkit.50572/

 

OK. Base filtering engine and firewall are dead. But i had to enable security center to avoid popups from Notifications & Actions, security and maintenance banners are grey (fixed turned on) TOASTS reg setting didn't help. In security center i also don't see option to disable notifications
