Varxx 0 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Simple question: Before installing ESET Endpoint Protection Standard on a new Windows machine, do I need to disable Windows Defender? My new machine is running Window 11 Pro. I saw Windows Defender discussed in a number of threads, but I still wasn't clear if I needed to manually disable or not. I think Windows itself may do this automatically when a third-party AV is installed, but I wanted to be certain. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 5,189 Posted January 28 Administrators Share Posted January 28 Windows disables Defender real-time protection automatically as soon as a 3rd party real-time protection registers to the Windows Security Center.

Solution Varxx 0 Posted January 28 Author Solution Share Posted January 28 OK, thank you, Marcos. That's what I was inferring from several posts, but it helps to have it stated clearly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
