    I can't activate or deactivate windows defender "Your IT administrator has limited access...


    I've read many fixes and none of them work. In my opinion this is just one of the many bugs of windows. I have tried restarting, logging off and o, changing registry, surfing in the settings for some button, using the hidden administrator account, nothing worked. I also have virus & threat protection locked by this error and ABSOLUTELY no antivirus running. I made the mistake of updating windows because of another bug and it worked before. Please help me fix it or uninstall it, I don't need it broken as it is.my rig:CPU: AMD A8-7650KGPU: AMD sapphire 570 ITX 4gb VramRAM: 12GBDisk Space: SS

    Page not available IT Administrator limited access

    I can't use any security function with window defender ( ex. scan folder with window defender, scan drive )

    and now I want to use the function " controlled folder access " but show Page not available IT Administrator limited access same.

    I use private network and my notebook. There is no admin at all. Why IT Administrator limited access me ?

    And my window notification to encryption drive. Is this related?

  3. Activation and Updates


    I have Comodo Premium Anti-Virus and Firewall installed. Would this be sufficient to disable Windows Defender? If so, what steps should I take to permit Windows Defender to bypass Comodo Anti-Virus and Firewall and become able to be activated?

    I just deactivated Comodo Anti-Virus and Firewall, but to no avail. I still could not activate Windows Defender. There has to be another cause. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I would be very interested.

    Page not available IT Administrator limited access

    Hello,

    You need to set GPO settings to Not Configured, that could hide the sections of Windows Defender:

    Hope this helps!
