Per your comments in the rep. If you have Security Essentials, Defender is included. YOu no longer need the separate software.

No Security Essential has Defender included. When you run Essentials it is checking the same stuff as Defender plus it is an anti virus
Defender is part of Security Essentials.
Malwarebytes is double protection, leave Malwarbytes and Security Essentials.
