Windows Defender Nag Screen After Windows Update

Options

in General

To day I manually updated Windows 7. Bypassed optional updates. No selective updates


With every reboot and cold boot -- I get the Windows Defender nag

How do I stop this nag screen recurring? :blink:


So far I have done a Bitdefender Repair. With no luck at resolving my problem


Would appreciate any help :)

    try the following:


    open services.msc and disable the windows defender service.


    then you need to check there are no startup entries for the defender GUI(msascui.exe).


    ccleaner has the ability to disable or delete entries such as this without putting windows into diagnostic startup mode like msconfig does when you start unticking things.

    Thank you 'antikythera' for your response.


    Spot on solution :D


    Two of my PCs have been "sick" with the Windows Defender "nag" for too long


    One of them since April 2013 ... 5 months ... with no solutions from any quarters


    After "services.msc" then CCleaner then reboot. Perfect!


    I have used CCleaner for years but only to clean dead files/registry items etc.


    Yours in grovelling gratitude ... my hero !! :D
