    Microsoft Defender and keyloggers, is it effective?


    I tried searching online and get various opinions, but would like to get new answers as of 2021. My laptop runs W10 pro.
    So, can I trust Defender to protect me from keyloggers? I also use the on screen keyboard, but I'm not sure if the Windows keyboard is that effective. Thank you for your help. Ed

    :)

    This has probably been asked before, could not find it in the forum.
    Does Windows Defender prevent keyloggers attack.
    I'm not asking if it detect keylogger infections once the system is compromised, but before end.
