Due to the small number of samples used in these tests, you should take results with a grain of salt. We encourage you to compare these results with others and take informed decisions on what security products to use.

Thanks @Av Gurus for this, i was kinda hoping Windows Defender would do better than this.

Do you think Windows Defender is still a quality product for already SAFE USERS?

With some addons on browser or maybe Sandboxie it should be fine...+ Brain.exe

It is basic AV, you could build security around that...VoodooShield+Win10firewall control or add Comodo Firewall...

Anybody know about the version of Defender in the creator's update? Is it better than this and does it slow down the PC?
