[QUOTE="bazang, post: 1114739, member: 114717"] "Used to" means how long ago did it work for you? [B]Microsoft disabled an unmanaged system's ability to block the start of Windows Defender using Group Policy back in 2020.[/B] You have two possibilities: 1. Use WDAC to block the Windows Defender service and other processes; or 2. Take ownership of the Windows Defender folders and the contents therein, and then rename the processes you wish to prevent startup by appending the underscore symbol _ (e.g. MsMpEng.exe_ or MsMpEng._).
