Are you able to select the Minus button to remove it as opposed to trying to disable it? As your screen shot makes it appear as though the minus button is not grayed out.
Microsoft Defender on macOS serves no purpose and should be, like any other anti-virus tool, entirely removed per vendor's removal instructions. There is a practical reason why Microsoft issues a Windows Defender data file update at least once a day, but Windows is a virus/malware magnet and macOS is purposely designed to prevent these types of attacks.
See Apple Platform Security - Apple Support
There are no known Windows-like Viruses in the wild that self replicate and affect macOS, because of the underling UNIX Foundation and Permission Limitation.
The Operating System resides in a Sealed and Read Only Volume that cannot be opened by the User nor by Third Party Applications.
The only Entity that can open and modify or alter this Volume is Apple.
That would occur when an update or UpGrade is performed.
The Only thing this Antivirus software is protecting is the Bank Account of the Developers and for zero return to the User aside from the problems this software creates.
AntiVirus Developers purposefully Market their product to create a “ Fear Factor “. In so doing, creating a False Need for their Product.
I can't select this button although it's green but not able to click it
