Deactivate Windows Defender properly for Bitdefender Endpoint Security Tools

larry321

Hi,

there is a few content about the deactivation of the Windows Defender but is it right that it has to be completely deactivated. I've discovered that the "Antimalware Service Executable" was still running, so i deactivated the Defender by GPO.

As you can see in the image, the app & browser protection + the device security modules were also still running.

After deactivation by GPO, you can only see the pop up of the Defender, that the app was deactivated by GPO.

That's right the way it is and the Defender doesn't hinder the Bitdefender either?

(We are using the default policy in this case.)
