Windows Defender. If turned on, Windows Defender will search your computer for many types of malicious software, including viruses, worms, bots, rootkits, “spyware”, “adware” and other potentially unwanted software. If you choose the “recommended” security settings when you first start using the software, such malware and other potentially unwanted software rated “high” or “severe” will automatically be removed. This removal may result in other software on your computer ceasing to work or your breaching a license to use that software. It is possible that software that is not unwanted may be removed or disabled. If you use Windows Defender and Windows Update, Windows Defender is regularly updated through Windows Update.
