    Then check for a 3rd party AV or security program installation.

    Why won't you check for any antivirus program, that the game may have installed "behind your back"?

    Go to Control Panel

    Open Programs and features

    Look, to see if there is any anitivus program, you haven't installed your self...

    Uninstall it

    Restart your computer

    See if it's possible to open Windows Defender...

    If you won't check that, then we can't help you...

    Just to check restart and run windows update again. Use Start > Power >Restart.

    Did you check for a 3rd party AV program?
