#### Disable Windows Defender

<details>

<summary>Why do I need to do this?</summary>

You need to disable your antivirus because it can block cheats or loaders from running correctly. Antivirus programs often flag cheat software as malicious because it modifies or injects code into games to enable features like **Aimbot** or **ESP** which appears abnormal for a file to do. This is a common issue for all game cheats, not just Vixen Cheats. Rest Assured, Vixen Cheats is safe to use.

</details>

1. Disable **Virus & threat protection settings**

   1. Search "Virus & Threat Protection Setting" in your windows search bar
   2. Click "Manage Settings"
   3. Disable all settings here, including "Real-time protection"

   <div align="left"><figure><img src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1511367973275963454/1518310377346170981/image.png?ex=6a39743a&#x26;is=6a3822ba&#x26;hm=a820f8ad7fa5b1aaf08a305e99012ae8dd829508bf714b0d24bffb7d60f54d57&#x26;" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>
2. Download and Install **DControl.**

   1. Download [7-Zip](https://github.com/ip7z/7zip/releases/download/26.01/7z2601-x64.exe) and install it. *(This is needed to extract certain files)*
   2. Download [DControl](https://drive.usercontent.google.com/download?id=1jxmKjN820qP_cLZLgbeBi-aP5DUbROle\&export=download\&authuser=0)
   3. Open it and select "Disable Windows Defender

   <div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/93LBa1Ru2b3bwx2y1zcf" alt="" width="201"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

<details>

<summary>Why do I need to use DControl?</summary>

What DControl does is completely disable windows defender so when you restart your computer, it doesn't automatically turn on again. Without it, everytime you restart, you'll have to repeat the above steps. Overall will just save you time when you want to use the cheat.
