Hi, I'm trying to delete the Windows Defender folder on my laptop using this guide on windowscentral, but once I follow a certain step, nothing further happens.

I've gotten to the point where I am told to click 'change' beside the trustedinstaller profile, but the pop-up window that is supposed to come up isn't appearing, halting my progress.

I tried looking for other articles but they all seem to be exactly the same so I'm kind of stuck.

I'd really appreciate the help.
