Windows Defender is generally thought of as not very good. Vista's firewall has outbound protection, but it is off by default and you have to turn it on yourself. The XP firewall does not have outbound protection, so any malware you downloaded can call home and XP's firewall won't stop it. However, Windows XP and Vista both have a built in firewall.

Coincidence?Īctually, it's all a moot point, as a search for "how to add Scan With Windows Defender to Windows 10 context menus" path led me to a thread and a post to, where a prompt reply recommended disabling the v4 Always register Malwarebytes in Windows Security Center. The disappearance of ‘Scan With Windows Defender’ and the disabling of Windows Defender Full-time protection finally got my attention though this Update package version 4.
Settings on mine traditionally are default, and with this in mind I am of the belief that "Always register Malwarebytes in Windows Security Center" was enabled in Malwarebytes Security Settings by default. Yeah, as did others in the not-too-dim past I had some issues, but they were always, ultimately resolved with the assistance and support of this forum. What I hadn't contemplated was what, if any, adverse effects the newest flavor of Malwarebytes updates might introduce. I should add that I peeked into Security Advanced Settings where I did see an impressive Anti-exploit settings matrix. But I'm sure you're getting a lot of that. On a very recent, closer inspection I couldn't help but notice that this new version 4 has a number of previous settings removed, as well as the complete, drastic overhaul to the UI. Opened, I gave a quick glance at the window and menus, which first impression was that it in no way visually resembled the prior version. On my Windows /18632.418 system Malwarebytes 4.0.4.49, Update package version 4 was installed on Nov 7, 2019. Clicking "Open app" on that page opened Malwarebytes. Odd, I thought, for Malwarebytes to get that kind of window space from Microsoft. Digging some more revealed that in Windows Security> Virus & threat protection, Malwarebytes is listed first. Another head-scratcher was when I was unable to turn on Real-time protection in Windows Defender Virus & threat protection an additional alert in red: "You're using other antivirus providers". The puzzle first began when I noticed ‘Scan With Windows Defender’ was no longer in the context menu.
