1. roll back WD antimalware platform (necessary to permanently disable the service) using MpCmdRun.exe" -resetplatform; see https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...lware-platform at bottom
2. reboot into safe mode
3. import the following regfile:

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SecurityHealthService]
"Start"=dword:00000004
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinDefend]
"Start"=dword:00000004

Thank you so much! I will try this. Was just in safe mode.
Back I go! :)
