    Would Windows 10 Phone affected by the same virus with Win 10 PC?


    So I just had a thought: if Windows 10 for Phone can run continuum and be a PC, then a virus or any malicious software can infect a phone just like it would in a laptop/desktop?

    Another thought: what if the virus can manipulate OneDrive sync and sync its files across the user's PCs since settings and other system stuffs can be sync?

    Just a thought, I'd really appreciate your comments!

    :)

    My mobile phone on scanning through Quick Heal Antivirus is not detected

    The way Windows 10 mobile OS on the phone is set up does not require the need for a virus scanner.

    Windows 10 mobile is not affected by virusses. or will be affected.
