I had a similar thing happen with my ZEC miner. One day the exe was just randomly removed by windows defender and I had to remove it from quarantine and set it as an exception.
Stop buying industrial miners, running them at home, and then complaining about the noise.

That will happen to all miners sooner or later due to the current sophisticated attacks...

Create a folder C:\Miners and add the folder to the exceptions for Windows Defender.  Anything you put in there will not be removed.  This should be one of the first things you do when setting up a new miner.  Never have to deal with it again after that.

You will have the same problem eventually.  Regardless what AV you use, put in an exception so you don't have to deal with it.  It's not difficult and has nothing to do with Windows Defender being proper or not.  Its all I've used for years without issue.

Not getting viruses and malware has more to do with the user than anything.  Don't go to shady sites and download untrusted crapware.
