[QUOTE="blackice, post: 986925, member: 79035"] I would argue Microsoft Defender is just as good. Here's why, they only get knocked in AV-C's scores due to file transfers with a large amount of small files. Defender is very slow for this, but if this is outside of your use case then it is not a performance concern. My weekly backups still run at about 225 MB/s. Only when I move folders full of EXEs around do I see any slowdown. 100% concur. I have seen very little difference between Microsoft Defender and any 'light' solution I've tried. Though as noted above there are use cases where it matters. For the average gamer/surfer/streamer it's not usually an issue. It is a power user issue. [/QUOTE]
