I'm looking for some recommendations on Windows security software that prioritizes strong real-time protection without bogging down the system performance. I'm not interested in anything that comes with a lot of unnecessary features—just solid core protection will do. What are folks using these days?

I switched all my systems to Linux. It's way more secure than anything Windows has to offer.
I've been using Windows Defender, and honestly, it does the job well enough for me.
I don’t use any Microsoft products at all. Just too risky for me.
Yeah, I agree with the others—Defender is really all you need. Anything else just seems like it's adding overhead.
Honestly, relying on Windows security is sketchy. I've opted for BitDefender Total Security; I’ve been using it for over a decade and it’s worth it. You can often find discounts online!
