    Unable to turn on Virus Protection


    I have a surface pro and am unable to turn on the virus protection. I keep getting emails that I believe to contain malicious software.

    What program should I get to supplement the current level of protection

    Turning on spyware and virus protection

    I have Windows 10 and have been advised that both my spyware and virus protections are not turned on. I have tried to turn them on but to no avail. I do not have any competing protection installed on my computer. Please advise as to how to proceed.
