Disables Windows Defender for free

Defender Control is a compact utility program designed to take charge of your Windows computer’s security features and disable it. This eliminates false conflicts between you and Windows Defender — a security program that’s pre-installed in most computers running Windows operating systems. 

Since there are other innovative and up-to-date security programs available, you’re most likely to use other programs such as Avast Antivirus, Psiphon, and Hamachi. Defender Control runs immediately after you decompress the archive from any location on your hard drive. No installation or configuration necessary.

What is Defender Control?

Defender Control may be downloaded, unzipped, and then executed. It’s a good idea to add the software to the “Add it to the exclusion list” option after the first run so you don’t receive any false alerts. When you initially open the program, you’ll be welcomed by a simple graphical user interface (GUI) that presents the utility’s main features.

The UI is suitable for the application’s function of setting or deactivating Windows Defender, despite its lack of aesthetic appeal. The program displays a color code that indicates whether or not the Windows security component is activated. As you might expect, green denotes that it is functioning, whereas red denotes that it is not.

Keep in mind that the most current versions of Windows won’t allow you to remove Windows Defender. Furthermore, accessing it through Settings only temporarily removes its security. This app allows you to turn it on and off with a single click. If you turn it off, you won’t have to worry about conflicts with other anti-viruses or lack of resources, and you could even see an increase in copy speed.

Get the best antivirus for your computer

Defender Control may be useful if you are experiencing frequent conflicts as a result of another antivirus you are running, or if you wish to boost the copy speed while transferring data from your computer to a USB device.
