Totally removing defender as TI is the only option if you dont want it turning itself back on arbitrarily. I went through this hell yesterday for about 3 hours.

I disabled it via group policy 2 years ago and just checked, still disabled.

It was working like that before, but on latest updates it automatically turns on every restart (or so).

I don't really need to remove it, only disable it because it visibly slows down machine x2-x10 depending on what you do.

that's if you disable through the normal settings interface. the group policy settings stick, although you might have to turn off "tamper protection" first before applying the group policy.

Do you have any handy script for that? I am not going to click around for sure.

Hell is the right word for it.
