Windows Defender and McAfee

Hi,

I have purchased a computer that has both Windows Defender and McAfee in the operating system.  When I clicked on Windows Defender to turn it on, it turned itself off.  I have come to understand that both systems will not work.  Since McAfee is requesting a purchase, I would prefer the Defender.  How do I turn McAfee off?
