No need to download—Microsoft Defender comes standard on Windows 10, protecting your data and devices in real time with a full suite of advanced security safeguards.
How do I use Windows Defender on Windows 10?
Select Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Security and then Virus & threat protection > Manage settings. (In previous versions of Windows 10, select Virus & threat protection > Virus & threat protection settings.)
Do I still need antivirus software with Windows 10?
Namely that with Windows 10, you get protection by default in terms of Windows Defender. So that’s fine, and you don’t need to worry about downloading and installing a third-party antivirus, because Microsoft’s built-in app will be good enough. Right? Well, yes and no.
