Windows Defender
I'm having problems with this, too. Or rather I'm worried I may not be protected. I downloaded Windows 10 yesterday. When I go into programs, I don't see Windows Defender in there. Why not? Shouldn't it be there?
I've been reading on the net about Defender. Articles say to get rid of any other virus protection software that's been downloaded. When I was Windows 7, I downloaded the FREE trial of Malwarebytes and the PC came with a FREE trial to McAfee. (I recently bought a refurbished Acer from Walmart). But now I'm afraid to uninstall these two programs because I fear I may end up with no protection.
Once again: shouldn't the Windows Defender that came with the Windows 10 download show up in "Programs"?
I am paying close attention to the post about this subject and will try whatever helps. But in the meantime, I would like to find Defender on my PC. I apologize for the redundant dialogue.
Thanks so much to everybody.
