Windows Defender Won't Turn Off After Running Repair

<< < (5/9) > >>

Boggin:
Not if WR is run in Safe Mode - Avira isn't loaded in that mode which is why it's advocated WR be run in Safe Mode so that an AV program doesn't interfere with the repairs.

However, Windows Firewall remains or is activated in Safe Mode.

Mighty Joe:
Btw since you mentioned safe mode...I did run WR in safe mode with networking as the program suggests.

Willy2:
- When run in Safe Mode then AVIRA (or any other AV) isn't loaded. But does that mean all the permissions the AV has changed, are reverted to their previous states for the duration that Safe Mode is active ? I could be wrong but I highly doubt it.

Boggin:
I wasn't aware that an AV program changed permissions.

Willy2:
- Oh, yes. And I know that MS doesn't share ALL it secrets with the general public. Otherwise AV programs would have been useless.
