welp, i dont lots of things, i ran sfc, dism, and chkDsk for a start,
i did something called reset base when i rans some scripts that basically reset defender and emptied it's database and reinstalled taht database (about 300MB) offline and added it

did a quick scan, was using DefenderUI, i disabled it , returned to default profile,

wut else to do?
