Security option disabled method required to enable

Asked By aldrin richards 60 points N/A Posted on - 04/03/2012

Hello,

There has been a message lately in my pc that shows that windows defender has been disabled and I do not know anything about that function. If it is a security matter than I think it is of some importance. Should someone know how to set the windows defender active kindly help me with it. For your information I use windows 7 operating system.

Security option disabled method required to enable

Yes it is for security measures it scans adware and spyware from your computer. You activate it by following these steps: Got start >control panel>windows defender > Click Tools, and then click Options> Administrator, select or clear the Use this program/ Use Windows Defender check box and then click Save. If it is already turned off you might see this I’m using windows 7 ultimate this is what I see when my windows defender is turned off. Click on “click here to turn it on” if you want to activate it. 

Windows defender is free and it is integrated on your windows, it works very well with you anti-virus and firewall for full protection.
