[QUOTE="Lenny_Fox, post: 856413, member: 82776"] Windows Defender participating in comparative tests is a blessing. I am I am 'the geek nephew who studied IT' (actually did not I studied web design & online marketing, but try to explain that to an aunt or uncle who already had one or two drinks to much on a birthday party of my parents). When I am now called to install a free antivirus I just install [URL='https://github.com/AndyFul/ConfigureDefender']ConfigureDefender[/URL] and set it to MAX. I explain to family member with the most IT understanding that Microsoft sets WD to default for maximum compatibility in enterprise environments, but WD has two stronger options HIGH and MAX. When WD scores 100% at medium, it is a killer at MAX. Average people don't install software, so they don't care about the increased risk of false positives by setting WD protection to MAX. [/QUOTE]
