Upon selecting the disable and unregister On-Access Scan with Windows Security Center option, the On-Access Scan gets disabled and unregistered from Windows Security Center and allows Defender to be set as the active antivirus alongside other Trellix defenses.
You might choose to disable and unregister On-Access Scan with Windows Security Center in specific environments to avoid conflicting security notifications or to allow a third-party security solution to act as the primary provider.
Note
Disabling this registration does not stop On-Access Scan from protecting your system; it only stops Trellix ENS from reporting its status to the Windows Security Center interface
Make sure that the interface mode for the Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) Client is set to Full access or log on to the Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) Client as administrator.
