I'm looking for the best free antivirus options for Windows 11. Is there anything that really stands out, or is Windows Defender sufficient on its own?

Windows Defender and a little common sense go a long way. Just remember to be careful with what you download and click on, that helps a lot too!
I agree, the built-in Windows Defender does the job for free. It's good for everyday use, but doing an occasional deep scan with something like Malwarebytes can catch anything that slips through.
Honestly, Microsoft Defender is quite solid for most users. You don't really need to install anything else if you keep it updated and running. It's built into Windows 11, so it's convenient too!
Yeah, it’s definitely worth keeping it as your main choice. If you're looking for something more, though, Malwarebytes can be a good backup just in case.
Right? It’s smart to have a backup plan since no antivirus can catch everything.
