It doesn't appear in the 'Programs and Features' list of programs to un-install. I'm able to use my Start menu to search for and find Defender but when I try to open it I get a message saying Defender is turned off. See the link below for info on this. Other websites say the same thing. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/15788/how-to-uninstall-disable-and-remove-windows-defender.-also-how-turn-it-off/ Regards, Kevin On Fri, Feb 22, 2013 at 3:08 PM, Ryan Johnson wrote: > On 22/02/2013 2:52 PM, KG wrote: >> >> Hello All, >> >> I recently installed Netbeans and Cygwin on my Windows 7 64-bit >> laptop.
