 ## Installation

 > You may need to temporarily disable realtime and tamper protection before proceeding, otherwise defender will block `defendnot` binaries due to the `VirTool:Win64/Defnot.A` detection.

-> As seen in examples 2 and 3, you can pass the commandline arguments to the installer script and it will forward them to `defendnot-loader`. For reference what commandline arguments are allowed, see the `Usage` section below.

 ## Limitations
 
 - **Needs to stay on disk:**  
-  To keep the AV registration persistent after reboot, `defendnot` adds itself to autorun. That means the binaries have to remain on your system for the Defender "disable" to stick. (Yeah, I wish it were more elegant too.)

 - **No support for Windows Server:**  
-  The Windows Security Center (WSC) service doesn’t exist on Windows Server editions, so `defendnot` *won’t* work there. See [#17](https://github.com/es3n1n/defendnot/issues/17).

 - **Defender Detection:**  
-  Not surprisingly, Windows Defender really doesn’t like `defendnot` and will flag or remove it as `VirTool:Win64/Defnot.A`. You’ll need to (temporarily) disable Defender’s real-time and tamper protection to install.
