Do you regularly use a cleanup tool? In that case, make sure it does not
clear the Windows Defender logs.

thanks a bunch guys

Hi Optical,

Are you or some 3rd party program clearing the History of Windows
Defender? This will cause the message that you are seeing.

The popular program CCleaner has a option to clean the History of
Windows Defender if you do not uncheck it in the Applications tab under
Cleaner.
