# Defender Control Open source windows defender disabler. Now you can disable windows defender permanently! Tested from on Windows 10 20H2. ## What is this project? We all know that disabling windefender is very difficult since microsoft is constantly enforcing changes. The first solution is to install an anti-virus - but thats not the point if we are trying to disable it! The next easiest solution is to use freeware thats already available on the internet - but none of them are native & open source... I like open source, so I made a safe to use open source defender control. ## What does it do? 1. It gains TrustedInstaller permissions 2. It will disable windefender services + smartscreen 3. It will disable anti-tamper protection 4. It will disable all relevant registries + wmi settings ## Is it safe? Yes it is safe, feel free to review the code in the repository yourself. ## Demo ![Demo](https://github.com/qtkite/defender-control/blob/main/resources/demo.gif?raw=true) ## Release You can find the first release over at the releases on the right. Or alternatively click [here](https://github.com/qtkite/defender-control/releases/tag/v1.0). Please note the release only disables defender at the moment. I will release a version that enables it in the near future. ## Writeup If you are interested in how I developed this program check out the writeup [here](https://github.com/qtkite/defender-control/blob/main/Writeup.md). ## TO-DO - Build an interface - Create native bindings for .NET
