Every now and then I get messages from Windows Security telling me that there is something wrong. Windows Security > Settings > Manage Providers > Antivirus then shows that Windows Defender Antivirus is switched on and ESET Security is switched off, but Windows Security > Settings > Manage Providers > Firewall shows that ESET Firewall is switched on and Windows Firewall is switched off. The Start screen of ESET Internet Security says that I'm protected though, and I tend to believe that. It seems to me ESET Internet Security isn't telling Windows that it's antivirus part is active. Is this a common issue?
Temporarily switching off and back on of ESET's protection cures the problem, but only for once.
I tried to fix things more permanently by running the following commands that I found on the internet:
dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
sfc /scannow
This seemed to improve things for a while, but after some time the problem popped up again.
P.S. I'm using Windows 10 Home version 2004 and ESET Internet Security version 14.0.22.0.
dfietkau gave kudos to AGH1965 in Windows Security says ESET Security is switched off
