Why not Kaspersky Free + HitmanPro Alert ? Windows Defender is not only weaker than Kaspersky but also heavier on the system. KFA also offers one of the strongest web protection out there.

ok, create a folder, fill it with 2-3 dozens of installers and files (as if you downloaded lot of softs and files, bigger they are, better it is) ; shutdown your computer.
Now boot , open the said folder, tell me what happen?

I just tried.
The copy from HDD to SDD was slower than I expected. Boot time was almost the same.
Opened the folder and I saw the "Antimalware Service Executable" works. It consumed max 25-30% of my CPU. Nothing major but I understand now.
