    Microsoft 10 Defender Antivirus


    I am planing on moving to PC from MAC. But I never had to worry about Antivirus on MACs so I am clueless when it comes to what I should get or do when it comes to Antivirus solutions. If anyone can help me with picking a good machine and the best Antivirus software that would be really awesome.

    Is Microsoft 10 Defender Antivirus software enough just it self?

    Defender AntiVirus

    There are 4 options under Defender. Two refer to AntiVirus; AntiVirus Network Inspection Service & AntiVirus Services. Under Startup Type these two are listed as manual and the Status column said Inspection Service is running. When I clicked on the Start
    button in Properties, I got an immediate message: "Win.. Def.. Anti.. Serv.. on local comp.. started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs."
