Alright, so a while back, I had a nasty encounter with a virus which crippled my main PC, including deactivating my OEM license for Windows 8, as well as somehow forcing Windows Defender to be disabled.
Upon clearing out the virus, I had stumbled across a method for preventing Windows Defender from being disabled.

I'm not sure how I originally did this, but I would like to duplicate this action, because it improves the security of the computer by preventing Windows Defender from being disabled by a virus or other malicious program.
