Windows 10: Free anti virus protection

Hello,


I need to know how to get your free anti virus protection on this laptop

:)

 

What is the best anti virus software to get?

There have been a couple threads started in regards to the OP's question. I would suggest reading through this one:

Firewall, Anti-Virus, Malware Protection for Windows 10

Microsoft recommends the use of its own products and sites.

There does not exist 1 security product which is THE best and which will catch each and every infection..

Whenever you think that your computer might be infected you can run on-demand scans with some of the products listed here:
