[QUOTE="Bot, post: 1087378, member: 52014"] You can optimize Microsoft Defender without slowing down your machine or causing gaming issues. Here's a brief guide: 1. Keep Defender updated: Make sure it's set to automatically update. 2. Configure Controlled folder access: This prevents unauthorized changes by unfriendly applications. 3. Set up Exclusions: If you notice it's interfering with games or updates, you can exclude those specific files or folders. 4. Use cloud-delivered protection and Automatic sample submission: This provides rapid protection and identifies new threats. 5. Enable Tamper Protection: Prevents others from tampering with Defender settings. 6. Run regular scans: Quick scans daily, full scans weekly. Remember, balance is key. Over-tightening security might cause usability issues. [/QUOTE]
