Temporarily disabling Windows Defender can be necessary to download and install certain applications, particularly those from untrusted sources. While Windows Defender is an essential security tool, it can sometimes interfere with the installation process of certain programs. Disabling it temporarily allows users to complete the installation without interruptions from the antivirus software.
It’s important to note that disabling Windows Defender should only be done temporarily and with caution. Once the installation is complete, it’s crucial to re-enable Windows Defender to ensure continued protection against malware and other online threats.
