What’s the Best Virus Protection for My PC Without Slowing It Down?

Asked By CuriousCat68 On

I've noticed my computer has been getting slower, and I'm starting to think it might not just be normal wear and tear. I've been using Windows Defender for a long time, but it feels like it might not be catching everything. I work remotely and often deal with various files from clients, and I admit I'm not always the most cautious with links I click on.

I want solid virus protection that won't bog down my system or annoy me with popups. Ideally, something that's effective yet easy to set up and forget would be perfect.

Windows Defender is usually all you need. I've worked in IT, and anything extra can slow down your PC unnecessarily. Just don't go clicking on sketchy links and you'll be fine.

I've been using Sophos Home Premium because I need extra security for my work. Windows Defender misses a few things, but doing some research on where links lead helps avoid trouble too.

Honestly, you're already using a good option with Windows Defender. If you want extra security, consider adding Malwarebytes for manual scans when you feel uneasy about something specific.

I stick with Windows Defender and rely on my own judgement. Just be careful about what sites you visit and you'll be alright!
