[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 929560, member: 32260"] There are some Windows editions still supported by Microsoft that use Windows Defender. Microsoft could change it to Microsoft Defender by a simple update, but this did not happen. So, we should not bother about the correct name too. :) I like using the WD name for the free version. I agree that while testing antivirus on Windows 2004 or 20H2 the term Microsoft Defender should be used (although the test results for WD would be probably the same). [/QUOTE]
