Turning Off Tamper Protection on Workstations
How do I turn off Tamper Protection on a domain-joined Windows 11 workstation? The problem is a workstation has Windows Defender in Passive Mode instead of being in Not Running mode after installing a 3rd party antivirus. Windows Defender is making running network applications from the servers much slower because it's still real-time scanning. I also suspect Tamper Protection is also preventing network drive exclusions from working on this workstation and on the ones that use Windows Defender without a 3rd party antivirus. I've tried adding every registry entry, Group Policy, and PowerShell command on the local workstation I could find to disable Windows Defender, but nothing works. I'm assuming this is due to Tamper Protection ignoring everything? This is an on-premises domain and doesn't use Microsoft Intune or Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager.
