Windows Defender already begins running at startup.
To select scanning options, go to:

Start > Programs > Windows Defender > Tools > Options

It does already. Windows Defender installs as a Service and runs when the machine does. By default, the latest version only shows you the system tray icon when something needs your attention. This can be changed in Windows Defender's options.
