Does Microsoft really able to defend my windows?

I have installed Windows Defender (beta 2). last week, wanted to try the latest anti-spy software from Microsoft. 
I was so happy that today the Windows Defender gave me a warning notification that it has detected some adwares on my machine.
But when I chose to remove them, guess what... I GOT the famous BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH. !!
I continue to try several times and tried to quarantine them, but I was presented with the same screen of death :(

After several tries, I finally found the solution. i.e. Boot up my Windows in Safe mode and delete the adware from there.

Sigh.

Hmmm, must be plunging quite deep into the OS to "fix" things to be able to draw out the STOP screen. With Windows XP, the only STOP errors I get are from hardware specific problems.

You should report this to allow them to produce a better product.
