Running Windows defender? Autostart

G

Guest

The former product Microsoft Windows AntiSpyware (Beta) was always running
and started at power up as an autostart job.
I cannot find any activity for Defender (although Realtime protection is
switched on). Do I have to start Defender every time I power on my PC to get
the protection against Spyware?
I prefer an autostart possibillity.

It's probably running......check task manager to find out
(MSASCui.exe).....there is no taskbar icon.

I can see MSCAui.exe running, but I prefer a more visable sibnature.
