Windows Defender not listed in all programs list

[Guest]

I'm trying to create a shortcut for desktop but can't find Windows Defender
listed in all programs!
The only way I can access it is through add/remove programs and that
reinstalls it every time.
Is this something I'm doing wrong?

Hello Tripp,

you can find it here:
c:\Program Files\Windows Defender\

right click on "MSASCui.exe" and make a shortcut to your desktop or
better to quick launch (less on the desktop, speed up your Pc)

Hi Tom,
Thanks for the response!
I located a User Interface file (MSASCui) and moved it to the desk top, this
allows me to access WD without haveing to reinstall every time. It is not
listed as a .exe file on my computer.
I saw a MSASCui.exe.manifest file that was the only .exe file listed, it was
not the file I needed to use. I only say this so maybe it will help others
that don't have alot of experience with computers, me included, to get a
shortcut created.

I had read all the other responses about creating a shortcut, at 3 am, but
was easily confused. lol
Tom your response HELPED very much, Thanks!

Hello Tripp,

glad you fix it!
You can set explorer on details and also in map options you can set
things that you can see more, like hidden and extensions.
right click on a program must give the option to make a shortcut on desktop.
