    Defender shut down


    I have a Asus x75vc Notebook LapTop WIN8, upgraded to Windows 10 Home,
    and the W.Defender has turned itself off. Is it supposed to be like that?
    Pandasecurity is the antivirus-program running on the laptop.

    Yes, when you use a different antivirus and antispyware, WD turn itself off automatically.

    When you go through the Control Panel, it should says so here:
