Spybot 2.8 - Why is it so hard to switch off the Windows Security Centre integration?

In case anyone else is looking for it, here is DonZ01's earlier post https://forums.spybot.info/showthrea...P-outside-WSSC.

This remains a problem, which I have just discovered to my horror. I don't know when it happened but I assume with a recent W10 update.

After recommending Spybot (free edition) to all kinds of people for years (and installing it for them if they weren't tech-savvy) now I'm suddenly regretting it.
