## Overview
Windows Defender Antivirus is automatically enabled and installed on endpoints and devices that are running Windows 10. But what happens when another antivirus/antimalware solution is used? It depends on whether you're using Microsoft Defender ATP.
- When endpoints and devices are protected with a non-Microsoft antivirus/antimalware solution, Windows Defender Antivirus automatically goes into disabled mode.
Windows Defender Antivirus is automatically enabled and installed on endpoints and devices that are running Windows 10. But what happens when another antivirus/antimalware solution is used? It depends on whether you're using [Microsoft Defender ATP](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection) together with your antivirus protection.
- When endpoints and devices are protected with a non-Microsoft antivirus/antimalware solution, and Microsoft Defender ATP is not used, Windows Defender Antivirus automatically goes into disabled mode.
- If your organization is using Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (Microsoft Defender ATP) together with a non-Microsoft antivirus/antimalware solution, then Windows Defender Antivirus automatically goes into passive mode. (Real time protection and and threats are not remediated by Windows Defender Antivirus.)
- If your organization is using Microsoft Defender ATP together with a non-Microsoft antivirus/antimalware solution, and you have [shadow protection (currently in private preview)](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-antivirus/shadow-protection), then Windows Defender Antivirus runs in the background and blocks/remediates malicious items that are detected, such as during a post-breach attack.
