After installing some WIndows Updates this week I can't seem to open Windows Defender Security Centre anymore. I can see it running in the system tray:
But when I try to double click this is opens and closes very quickly. If I try to open it from Settings:
It also doesn't open. Logging in as an admin doesn't help either.
I had a look in Event Viewer and can't see any errors and it seems to still be updating (I think) but I just can't get the GUI to open to check/change things.
Any ideas how I can launch Windows Defender Security Centre again?
I thought it may be AppGuard so I disabled it temporarily but it didn't seem to help.
