The Windows Defender is the the default antivirus application of Windows 10. Older versions of Windows like Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7. Vista also had the app but then it was less effective as it only looked for spyware and adware.
In Windows 8 and Windows 10, Defender is based on the Microsoft Security Essentials application, which offers better protection by adding complete protection against all kinds of malware.
However, if you prefer to use an alternative to protect your computer, you may want to disable Windows Defender. Below we will see how you can permanently disable Windows Defender.
Open the Notepad (or text editor), copy and paste the following text:
Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Policies \ Microsoft \ Windows Defender] "DisableAntiSpyware" = dword: 00000001 "DisableOnAccessProtection" 00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Policies \ Microsoft \ Windows Defender \ Real-Time Protection] DisableBehaviorMonitoring "= dword: 00000001" DisableScanOnRealtimeEnable "= dword: 00000001
In Notepad, press Ctrl + S or from the File menu, click Save. The Save dialog box will open. There, copy-paste the following name along with the quotes: "defender.reg". Quotes will ensure that your file has the extension ".reg" and will not be saved as .reg.txt.
Save the file anywhere you want.
Right after that you can double click on the *.reg file. that you created. Confirm the UAC prompt and click Yes to add it to the Registry. Then you should do a retestmovement in your system.
Below you will find the files for the Registry. Also included is a file that will help you restore the application if you ever need it.
The zip file contains the disable.reg που θα απενεργοποιήσει την εφαρμογή και το αρχείο restore.reg που θα την επαναφέρει αν κάποια στιγμή την χρειαστείτε. Μετά από κάθε εφαρμογή των files your system will need to reboot.

I do not know how effective it is (so all Antivirus is effective until you get the virus), but it does not bother me at all. He does his job quietly and does not blame you.
