How To Remove FortiEDR AV Registration with Microsoft Security?

Hii,

To get rid of FortiEDR's AV registration from Microsoft Security Centre and have Defender show up as the AV provider, follow the instructions below:

1. You may open the Registry Editor by pressing Windows Key + R, typing "regedit," and then pressing Enter.

2. Navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center\Provider

3. You may see a list of subkeys for various AV providers in the left pane. To find the subkey for enSilo or FortiEDR, look for it. Depending on the individual installation, the name could change.

4. To delete an enSilo or FortiEDR subkey, choose "Delete" from the context menu. When asked to confirm the deletion, do so.

5. Registry Editor should be closed.

6. To make sure the modifications take effect, restart your computer.

These actions should prevent Microsoft Security Centre from identifying enSilo or FortiEDR as the main AV provider in the future. Then Windows Defender must designate itself as the AV provider.

Please be aware that improper registry modification might have negative effects. Before making any changes, you should exercise caution and make a backup of your registry. It's advised to ask your IT department for help or consult a competent person if you're unclear or uncomfortable making changes to the register.

I hope that this would enable you to solve your issue.
