Unable to disable Windows Defender on 1909
Hello! I'm using Windows 10 1909, Version 10.0.18363, Build 18363.
I am unable to turn off Windows Defender permanently. I followed this guide: How to Turn On or Off Microsoft Defender Antivirus in Windows 10 and none of the methods work. I have turned off tamper protection already.
When I try to use the group policy editor method and enable this "Turn off Windows Defender Antivirus" and reboot, it automatically becomes "Not configured".
When I use the regedit method, the setting real-time protection is still on (but other settings are disabled) and when I disable it, it becomes activated again.
Please help me, I want to disable Windows Defender permanently and I DO NOT want to use any other AVs.
