Ako ste vidjeli program “ Antimalware Service Executable †u Upravitelju zadataka^{(Task Manager)} , ne brinite. To nije usluga treće strane ili virus koji oponaša antivirusni program. To je službeni program iz sustava Windows^(Windows) koji osigurava sigurnost vašeg Windows računala. Ovdje odgovaramo na sve vaše upite za pitanje – Što je izvršna datoteka usluge Antimalware^{(Antimalware Service Executable)} ( msmpeng.exe ) i zašto pokazuje visoku upotrebu CPU -a , diska^(Disk) ili memorije^(Memory) u Windows 11/10 ? Je li virus? Trebam li ga onemogućiti? Sve svoje odgovore na ova pitanja pronađite u ovom postu.

Izvršni proces usluge Antimalware^{(Antimalware Service Executable)} igra važnu ulogu u antivirusnom programu Windows Defender koji je izvorni za Windows 11/10 . Ovaj izvršni^{(Antimalware Service Executable)} program za zaštitu od zlonamjernog softvera s vremena na vrijeme troši mnogo više od svog poštenog udjela procesorske^(CPU) snage CPU-a, te čak može utjecati na brzinu vašeg računala do brzine puža.

Što je izvršna datoteka usluge^{(Antimalware Service Executable)} antimalware (msmpeng.exe)

Windows 11/10 i Windows Defender , sada integrirani u jezgru OS-a i pripremljeni kao Windows Defender Antivirusni sustav^{(Windows Defender Antivirus System)} , napredovali su dug put. Kao i mnogi drugi programi koji moraju kontinuirano raditi u pozadini, WDAS također radi u pozadini s nazivom  Izvršna usluga Antimalware Service^{(Antimalware Service Executable)} ( MsMpEng.exe ). Ovaj proces pomaže ponuditi zaštitu u stvarnom vremenu od zlonamjernog softvera i drugih potencijalnih prijetnji.

Ako ste ga iz nekog razloga vidjeli na popisu u Upravitelju zadataka kako troši memoriju, a CPU više^{(Task Manager consuming memory, and CPU more)} nego ikad, ne brinite. Mnogo puta antivirusni program mora pokrenuti pozadinu s planiranim skeniranjem, provjeravanjem datoteka na zlonamjerni softver, instalacijom softvera za vrijeme izvršavanja i kontinuiranim praćenjem promjena u datotekama.

Najbolji način za unakrsnu provjeru je da desnom tipkom miša kliknete naziv programa u Upravitelju zadataka^{(Task Manager)} i otvorite njegovu lokaciju datoteke. Primijetit ćete da je dostupan pod C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Platform\4.16.17656.18052-0 . Također možete ručno pozvati program Defender da izvršite skeniranje, a to će povećati ^(Defender)CPU i korištenje memorije^(Memory) .

Antimalware usluga Izvršna datoteka Visoka upotreba CPU^{(Antimalware Service Executable High CPU)} - a , memorije^(Memory) , diska^(Disk)

Vidio sam ovaj program kako sjedi u pozadini i ne radi ništa. Ponekad sam vidio da troši 30% CPU -a. Ako ste vidjeli da zauzima visoki CPU dio, velike su šanse da skenira vaše datoteke u pozadini. Ovo je kako biste bili sigurni da postoji potencijalni virus ili zlonamjerni softver.

Primijetit ćete da se ove vrste skokova događaju na određenim događajima. Kada se vaše računalo pokrene, u tijeku je instalacija softvera, kada preuzmete datoteku s interneta ili provjerite e-poštu u Outlooku^(Outlook) s privitcima.

Najbolji dio ove  Izvršne Antimalware usluge^{(Antimalware Service Executable)} ili Windows Defendera^{(Windows Defender)} je to što skenira pozadinu samo kada vaše računalo miruje. To osigurava da vaše računalo nije sporo dok radite, a pokretanje skeniranja u fazi mirovanja daje prednost programu u korištenju više CPU resursa.

Ako ste suočeni s ovim problemom visoke potrošnje CPU-a, diska ili memorije^{(high CPU, Disk, or Memory usage)} , možete isprobati naša preporučena rješenja u nastavku bez posebnog redoslijeda i provjeriti pomaže li to riješiti problem visoke potrošnje CPU -a.

1. Provjerite ima li infekcija zlonamjernim softverom
2. Promijenite opcije zakazivanja programa Windows Defender^{(Windows Defender)}
3. Dodajte izvršnu uslugu Antimalware Service^{(Add Antimalware Service Executable)} na popis isključenja Windows Defendera
4. Pokrenite Provjeru sistemskih datoteka
5. Onemogućite Windows Defender (ne preporučuje se)

Pogledajmo opis procesa koji se odnosi na svako od navedenih rješenja.

1] Provjerite ima li infekcija zlonamjernim softverom

Moguće je da je vaše računalo zaraženo zlonamjernim softverom zbog čega Windows Defender poremeti rad vašeg računala. U tom slučaju pokrenite potpuno skeniranje sustava koristeći bilo koji  samostalni AV skener na zahtjev^{(standalone on-demand AV scanners)} . Možda ćete htjeti pokrenuti izvanmrežno skeniranje sustava Windows Defender prilikom pokretanja^{(run Windows Defender Offline Scan at boot time)}  ili  upotrijebiti antivirusni medij za spašavanje^{(use bootable AntiVirus Rescue Media)} za invazivno čišćenje sustava.

 2] Promijenite opcije zakazivanja programa Windows Defender^{(Change Windows Defender)}

U nekim slučajevima, velika potrošnja memorije uzrokovana Antimalware Service Executable obično se događa kada Windows Defender izvodi potpuno skeniranje. Možete konfigurirati ovo skeniranje koje se izvodi kao zakazani zadatak, tako da se odvija u vrijeme kada je manja vjerojatnost da ćete osjetiti pražnjenje CPU-a^(CPU) .

Učinite sljedeće:

• Pritisnite  Windows key + R za pozivanje dijaloškog okvira Pokreni.
• U dijaloškom okviru Pokreni upišite taskschd.msci pritisnite Enter da biste otvorili Task Scheduler^{(open Task Scheduler)} .
• U lijevom oknu idite na stazu u nastavku:

Task Scheduler Library > Microsoft > Windows > Windows Defender

• Sada, u srednjem oknu, dvaput kliknite na unos zakazanog skeniranja Windows Defendera .^{(Windows Defender Scheduled Scan )}
• Na kartici Općenito^(General) poništite opciju Pokreni s najvišim privilegijama^{(Run with highest privileges )} .
• Zatim kliknite karticu Uvjeti^(Conditions) i poništite sve stavke u odjeljkuÂ.
• Kliknite U redu^{(OK )} za brisanje zakazanih skeniranja.

Kako bismo zaštitili svoje računalo, važno je zakazati/izraditi neka nova skeniranja, ali to možemo učiniti na način koji će smanjiti utjecaj na performanse vašeg sustava.

Učinite sljedeće:

• Dvaput kliknite na  unos zakazanog skeniranja u Windows Defenderu^{(Windows Defender Scheduled Scan )} .
• Odaberite karticu Okidači^{( Triggers )} .
• Kliknite gumb Novo .^{( New )}

Sada možete kreirati novi raspored skeniranja koji odgovara vašim potrebama – odabirom opcija koje uspostavljaju ravnotežu između zaštite i učinkovitosti sustava. Kao smjernicu, preporučujemo (najmanje) tjedno skeniranje u vrijeme kada vjerojatno nećete primijetiti povećanu upotrebu CPU -a.

• Kliknite OK kada završite.
• Ponovite postupak za tri preostale usluge ( Održavanje predmemorije^{(Windows Defender Cache Maintenance)} Windows Defendera , Čišćenje^{(Windows Defender Cleanup)} Windows Defendera , Provjera Windows Defendera^{(Windows Defender Verification)} ) u srednjem oknu.

Ako problem i dalje postoji nakon što ste isprobali ovo rješenje, nastavite sa sljedećim.

3] Dodajte izvršnu uslugu Antimalware^{(Add Antimalware Service Executable)} na popis isključenja programa Windows Defender^{(Windows Defender)}

Tijekom skeniranja, Windows Defender provjerava svaku pojedinu datoteku na vašem računalu – uključujući i samu sebe. To povremeno može rezultirati zaostajanjem sustava. U tom slučaju možete dodati izvršnu uslugu Antimalware^{(Antimalware Service Executable)} na popis isključenja programa Windows Defender^{(add Antimalware Service Executable to Windows Defender exclusion list)} . Evo kako:

• Pritisnite  Windows key + R da biste pozvali dijaloški okvir Pokreni.
• U dijaloškom okviru Pokreni upišite  windowsdefender: i pritisnite Enter da otvorite Windows sigurnosni centar^{(open Windows Security Center)} .
• Kliknite Postavke zaštite od virusa i prijetnji^{(Virus & threat protection settings)(Virus & threat protection settings)} na Navigacijskom^(Navigation) izborniku s lijeve strane.
• Na stranici postavki zaštite od virusa^(Virus) i prijetnji pomaknite se prema dolje do odjeljka Izuzimanja .^(Exclusions)
• Kliknite vezu Dodaj ili ukloni izuzimanja^{(Add or remove exclusions)} .
• Na stranici Izuzimanja kliknite gumb + Add an exclusion .
• Odaberite Proces^(Process) s izbornika.
• U polje Unesite naziv procesa^{(Enter process name)} upišite izvršnu datoteku Antimalware Service.^{(Antimalware Service Executable.)}
• Kliknite gumb Dodaj .^(Add)

4]Â Pokrenite provjeru sistemskih datoteka

Pokretanje System File Checker može pomoći u zamjeni potencijalno oštećenih datoteka Defendera .^(Defender)

Povezano^(Related) : Popraviti COM Surogate visoku upotrebu CPU-a ili diska^{(Fix COM Surrogate high CPU or Disk usage)} .

5] Onemogućite Windows Defender (ne preporučuje se)

U krajnjem slučaju, ako nijedno od gore navedenih rješenja nije dalo pozitivan rezultat, možete potpuno onemogućiti Windows Defender . Imajte na umu da vas to čini ranjivim na niz kibernetičkih napada, stoga je ključno da instalirate renomirani i lagani sigurnosni softver treće strane^{(third-party security software)} na svoje računalo sa sustavom Windows 10 prije nego što onemogućite Windows Defender .

Je li sigurno onemogućiti izvršnu uslugu Antimalware^{(Antimalware Service Executable)} ?

Ne preporučujemo sve, kao što je gore spomenuto. Najveći razlog za našu podršku je taj što radi zajedno s antivirusnim rješenjem treće strane. Radi kao pozadinski proces i nudi vašem sustavu solidan sloj zaštite. Tijekom skeniranja datoteka može otkriti zlonamjernu datoteku i odmah vas obavijestiti o njoj. To vam daje dovoljno razloga da ne onemogućite Windows Defender .

Windows Defender ga automatski onemogućuje kada instalirate antivirusni program treće strane.

Postoji još mnogo razloga. Windows Defender posljednja je zaštita koju imate kada je u pitanju ransomware koji može zaključati vaše datoteke. Microsoft je implementirao ovu značajku s OneDriveom^(OneDrive) kako bi osigurao da su vaše datoteke sigurne i da se mogu vratiti.

Kako mogu spriječiti izvršnu antimalware uslugu da koristi veliku memoriju, CPU , korištenje diska^{(Disk Usage)} ?

Međutim, ako smatrate da oduzima previše resursa, možete isključiti zaštitu u stvarnom vremenu.

Idite na Settings > Update i Security > Virus i prijetnji > Virus Postavke zaštite od virusa i prijetnji i onemogućite zaštitu u stvarnom vremenu. Automatski će ga omogućiti kada ne pronađe nikakav antivirusni^(AntiVirus) softver instaliran na vašem računalu.

Kao što sam rekao, Windows Defender radi zajedno s drugim antivirusnim rješenjima. Iako se sam onemogućuje, s vremena na vrijeme, skenirat će vaše računalo. Shvatit će rizike koje je vaše primarno antivirusno rješenje moglo propustiti.

Nadam se da ovo objašnjava što je Antimalware Service Executable .

Antimalware Service Executable High CPU, Memory, Disk usage

If you have seen the program “Antimalware Service Executable” in the Task Manager, don’t be worried. It’s not a third-party service or a virus mimicking an antivirus. It’s an official program from Windows which makes sure to secure your Windows PC. Here we answer all your queries for the question – What is Antimalware Service Executable (msmpeng.exe) and why does it show high CPU, Disk or Memory usage in Windows 11/10? Is it a virus? Do I need to disable it? Find all your answers to these questions in this post.

The Antimalware Service Executable process plays an important role in the Windows Defender antivirus that is native to Windows 11/10. This Antimalware Service Executable has been reported, at times, to be consuming far more than its fair share of CPU processing power, and can even impact your computer’s speed to a snail’s speed.

What is Antimalware Service Executable (msmpeng.exe)

Windows 11/10 and Windows Defender, now integrated within the core of OS, and primed as Windows Defender Antivirus System, has come a long way. Like many other programs that need to run continuously in the background, WDAS also runs in the background with the name of  Antimalware Service Executable (MsMpEng.exe). This process helps offer real-time protection against malware and other potential threats.

If for some reason, you have seen it listed in the Task Manager consuming memory, and CPU more than ever, don’t be worried. Many a time the antivirus program needs to run the background with scheduled scanning, checking files for malware, runtime software installation, and continuously monitor files for changes.

The best way to cross-check is to right-click on the program name, when in Task Manager, and open its file location. You will notice that it’s available under C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Platform\4.16.17656.18052-0. You can also invoke the Defender program manually to perform the scan, and this will increase the CPU and Memory usage.

Antimalware Service Executable High CPU, Memory, Disk usage

I have seen this program sitting in the background, and doing nothing. At times, I have seen it consuming 30% CPU usage. If you have seen it taking a high CPU portion, the chances are that it is scanning your files in the background. This is to make sure of a potential virus or malware.

You will notice these types of surges happen at certain events. When your PC boots, software installation is in progress, when you download the file from the internet or check your emails in Outlook with attachments.

The best part of this Antimalware Service Executable or Windows Defender is that it only does background scans when your PC is sitting idle. This makes sure that your PC is not slow when you are working, and running scans in the idle stage gives the program advantage of using more CPU resources.

If you’re faced with this high CPU, Disk, or Memory usage issue, you can try our recommended solutions below in no particular order and see if that helps to resolve the high CPU usage issue.

1. Check for malware infections
2. Change Windows Defender scheduling options
3. Add Antimalware Service Executable to Windows Defender’s exclusion list
4. Run System File Checker
5. Disable Windows Defender (not recommended)

Let’s take a look at the description of the process involved concerning each of the listed solutions.

1] Check for malware infections

It’s possible that your PC has a case of malware infection which is causing Windows Defender to disrupt your computer’s performance. In this case, run a full system scan using any standalone on-demand AV scanners. You may want to run Windows Defender Offline Scan at boot time or use bootable AntiVirus Rescue Media to invasively clean your system.

 2] Change Windows Defender scheduling options

In some cases, the high memory usage caused by Antimalware Service Executable typically happens when Windows Defender is running a full scan. You can configure this scan that is run as a scheduled task, to take place at a time when you’re less likely to feel the drain on your CPU.

Do the following:

• Press Windows key + R to invoke the Run dialog.
• In the Run dialog, type taskschd.msc and hit Enter to open Task Scheduler.
• On the left pane, navigate to the path below:

Task Scheduler Library > Microsoft > Windows > Windows Defender

• Now, in the middle pane, double-click the Windows Defender Scheduled Scan entry.
• On the General tab, uncheck Run with highest privileges option.
• Next, click the Conditions tab and uncheck all the items in the section.
• Click OK to clear your scheduled scans.

To protect your computer, it is important to schedule/create some new scans, but we can do this in a way that will reduce the impact on your system’s performance.

Do the following:

• Double-click Windows Defender Scheduled Scan entry.
• Select the Triggers tab.
• Click the New button.

You can now create a new scan schedule that suits your needs – selecting options that strike the balance between protection and system efficiency. As a guideline, we recommend (at minimum) weekly scans at a time when you’ll be unlikely to notice the increased CPU usage.

• Click OK when done.
• Repeat the process for the three remaining services (Windows Defender Cache Maintenance, Windows Defender Cleanup, Windows Defender Verification) in the middle pane.

If the issue still persists after you have tried this solution, proceed with the next.

3] Add Antimalware Service Executable to Windows Defender exclusion list

During its scans, Windows Defender checks every single file on your computer – including itself. This can occasionally result in system lag. In this case, you can add Antimalware Service Executable to Windows Defender exclusion list. Here’s how:

• Press Windows key + R to invoke the Run dialog box.
• In the Run dialog box, type windowsdefender: and hit Enter to open Windows Security Center.
• Click Virus & threat protection settings on the Navigation menu on the left.
• In the Virus & threat protection settings page, scroll down to the Exclusions section.
• Click the Add or remove exclusions link.
• In the Exclusions page, click the + Add an exclusion button.
• Select Process from the menu.
• In the Enter process name field, type Antimalware Service Executable.
• Click the Add button.

4] Run System File Checker

Running System File Checker may help replace potentially corrupted Defender files.

5] Disable Windows Defender (not recommended)

As a last resort, if none of the above solutions yielded any positive result, you can disable Windows Defender altogether. Keep in mind that doing so leaves you vulnerable to a range of cyberattacks, so it’s critical that you install a reputable and lightweight third-party security software on your Windows 10 computer before disabling Windows Defender.

Is it safe to disable Antimalware Service Executable?

We do not recommend that all, as mentioned above. The biggest reason that goes into our support is that it works along with a third-party antivirus solution. It runs as a background process and offers your system a solid layer of protection. While scanning files it can detect a malicious file and immediately inform you about it. This gives you enough reason not to disable Windows Defender.

Windows Defender disables it automatically when you install a third-party antivirus.

There are many more reasons. Windows Defender is the last protection you have got when it comes to ransomware which can lock down your files. Microsoft has implemented this feature with OneDrive to make sure your files are safe and can be recovered back.

How do I stop antimalware service executable from using high memory, CPU, Disk Usage?

However, if you feel like it’s taking too much resources, you can turn off the real-time protection.

Go to Settings > Update & Security > Virus & threat protection > Virus & threat protection settings and disable Real-time protection. It will automatically enable it when it doesn’t find any AntiVirus software installed on your PC.

As I said, Windows Defender works along with other antivirus solutions. Even though it disables itself, from time to time, it will scan your PC. It will figure out risks that could have been missed by your primary antivirus solution.

I hope this explains what the Antimalware Service Executable is.
