Antimalware Service Executable

[BataBole]

Has anyone found a solution to stop this service? Everytime I start my PC, ASE is the first thing that boots up and take my disk usage up to 100%. It takes about 20-30 minutes until it reduces its usage. My PC does not respond at anything while service is running. I haven't had these issues with Anniversary Update. Anyone else facing this issue, have you found a fix? Please welp!

Maybe turn off Windows Defender and replace it with a different A/V like Avast!, Avira or AVG?

Is it possible to turn off Windows Defender on Creators update, cuz I cannot do that? I tried also to disable/postpone it through Task Scheduler, but even though its disabled it runs on every start up! Which is annoying.. I also tried reinstalling OS and clean install didn't help. I may need get back to Anniversary update..

Windows Defender gets disabled once you install a third-party solution.

What if I don't want to have any AV? I've used Windows 7 & 8-8.1 and 10 without any AV, and never had any problems until now..

Well I'd advise against it, but it's not like we can reach over the internet and force you to do anything.

I've just reverted to Windows 8.1 and I'm not facing that issue anymore. Thank you all for the information. @anon(10169102) I'll try that next time when I install CU again.. Cheers everybody!
