### Good To Mention ###
I want to mention that the following technique to turn on and off "windows defender" came from the necessity to quickly turn off "windows defender" on a computer managed by an organization.
The registry values under:
"Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Policy Manager"
They appear only if the computer is under an organization.
#### BUT ####
It still works on a computer that is not managed. All you have to do is execute "Fdefender.exe -E" which will enable all defender protections in order to create the values we need under the key above. After that, you can manage your defender via this tool.
