Windows defender full and quick scans
What's your security routine in re Windows defender?
Since like many of us, I have backup data and working materials loaded on external drives, including my Macrium backups. Before I plug them in, I want to be confident they aren't in jeopardy of infection. I want to be careful, but but to the point of paranoia.
Do you run manual scans unprompted by alerts? If so, is it done on a routine basis? Do you have faith in the results of a Quick scans? Or do you forgo a manual scan on the fact that defender scans automatically run multiple times a day?
