MICROSOFT Defender Antivirus users may experience repeated notifications falsely indicating that the antivirus has been turned off, despite its active status. This issue affects various Windows versions, including Windows 10 and 11, and persists even after attempts to disable notifications. Microsoft is working on a solution, which will be delivered through automatic updates, while users are advised to disregard these false alerts in the meantime. The problem is unrelated to the monthly Windows updates.
