How to Permanently Disable Windows Defender Real Time Protection on Windows 11

How to Permanently Disable Windows Defender Real Time Protection on Windows 11.

Windows Defender Antivirus is the free malware solution that Microsoft includes on every installation of Windows 11. It's a security software package meant to provide the first line of defense to protect your device and data against malware, including viruses, ransomware, rootkits, spyware, and other types of malicious programs.

Although the antivirus runs automatically, and it can disable itself as you install a third-party security software, the only caveat is that Windows 11 doesn't offer a way to disable it permanently. Perhaps the obvious reason is that Microsoft doesn't want you to use your device without any protection, which is a good thing.

However, there are still some cases where some users may prefer not to use Windows Defender Antivirus, such as on a kiosk device that isn't connected to a network and where peripheral connectivity isn't allowed.

Thank you very much for this valuable information

On Widows 10 at least, you need to disable Tamper Protection in Windows Security before disabling Defender Antivirus. Otherwise Tamper Protection will override and negate the Group Policy setting. Not sure about Win11 though...

Good video all tutorials should be this easy to follow.

I got a warning "Cannot edit DisableAntiSpyware: Error Writing value's new contents "

[WinFoxer]

For those of you when you restart your pc and it turns back on, go to where you turn on real time protection and scroll down a little and turn off Tamper Protection. Change the registry again and it will stay disabled.
