    maestrosir, Nucleus
    Winaero Tweaker cannot disable or remove Windows Defender Security Centre, but it can disable Windows Defender.
    I think maestrosir meant that he disabled Windows Defender using my app.
    I'll update Winaero Tweaker to get rid of the tray icon in Creators Update.

    His screenshot showing Security Centre threw me.
