Every once and awhile at startup the Win Defender icon shows up in the
sys tray with an exclamation point, presumably wanting a full scan
(quick won't do). Since I use WD as an additional real-time check, not
as a mainline scanner, I'd like to get rid of that icon, thus a few
questions:
- Is clicking on "Exit" all it takes, or does that affect the
program's operation itself?
- What is WD's process name (in Process Explorer)?
- Can this behavior be adjusted at startup? Looking at Autoruns, there
are three processes currently loading: Windows Defender User Interface,
ShellExecute hook, WinDefend (I unchecked scheduled scan)
Thanks,
Gene
