How to fix Microsoft defender

Bob.ombs software was suggested in another Ten Forms thread > there was a malware warning after the webpage opened

This computer has Microsoft defender and Malwarebytes premium trial.

Operating System: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (10.0, Build 19042) (19041.vb_release.191206-1406)

Malwarebytes scan today: no malware
Microsoft defender today: no malware

Should the 14 day premium trial interfere or compete with defender or is this a problem with defender?

Defender is not allowing a manual full or offline scan.

It somehow fixed itself.

Malwarebytes has disabled Defender. To re-enable it you need to turn off register in windows security center in Malwarebytes.

If you're done with the trial, uninstall the premium version, reboot and download the free version of Malwarebytes. https://www.malwarebytes.com/mwb-download/

Hello @zbook,

In my experience, the premium version switches to the free one when the trial times out. Malwarebytes sometimes sneaks in the premium trial on updates. Since I don't want it, I go to Settings > Account and turn the trial off.

That is correct.

I still use it even though the Trial has Expired.
It just DOESN'T include some of the features that were availble in the Trial Version.
