Edit: Completely removed AVG now since many people say Windows Defender is good enough ✅ The less running in the background the better

@stux Microsoft Defender is built-in. :P.

@yvz @stux I second this. In fact, Windows Defender (it is his little name 😁) is far better than most of these "free" adware’s with AV functions…

@stux well in fact, in the "Windows World", Microsoft is now a leader in terms of advanced security solutions and this benefits to the standalone version which is onbarded with Windows 10/11.
