Hey........... Open up Windows Defender by hitting start, typing “defender,” and then clicking “Windows Defender.” Switch to the “Tools” page on the menu, and then click the “Options” link. Switch to the “Administrator” tab in the left-hand pane, and then toggle the “Use this program” check box however you want.

Hi Guys:

If you are using Windows 10: You will have to do it a little different, as all this has changed.  I will post these instructions in a separate Thread :)

I understand:  However, I will have to post the way that you do that in Windows 10  - Because the Windows 10 Fall Creators update makes it hard to turn something OFF in the event you have a VIRUS, and need to run Malware removal tools: You have to also disable Windows Smartscreen, because without that, you cant even RUN some of these tools that may be needed, so I figured I would add a post for doing this on Windows 10 ;)
