I need to turn off my Defender so that I can run System Restore.
According to all of the replies in Bing, this is what I should do:
To turn Windows Defender Firewall on or off, select the Windows logo Start button, and then select Settings / Gear-shaped Settings icon > Update & Security > Firewall & network protection. Choose a network profile, and then under Windows Defender Firewall, switch the setting to On or Off
but I haven't got an On/Off setting - and mine says Windows Security, not Defender.
When I previously tried to turn it off, I got an alert exclamation mark against 'App & browser control'. Digging down, I saw the following:
In App & browser control my settings are Check apps & files (Block/Warn/Off) - mine is set to Warn
In Smart Screen for MS Edge: (Block/Warn/Off) - mine is set to Warn
and in SmartScreen for Microsoft Store apps, (Warn/Off) - mine is set to Warn
Where am I going wrong, please?
PS If my Topic is wrong, would an Administrator please change it? TIA
