Thread: Windows Defender, Is that enough for my PC?

Absolutely Fine. Windows defender works as an Antivirus where Malware byte will work as an Anti-malware. But some anti viruses will slow down your PC. That's why I recommend to keep windows defender with malware-bytes.

Yes Neo, I have a headache about proxy malware recent days and I wondering why my anti-virus isn't find it as a thread. Then I get to know about malware-bytes, and It's working fine. I installed ESet and Malwarebytes on my PC, is that harmful ??

Its not harmful. you can use both. but sometimes your windows may highlight that you're using additional antivirus, if windows defender also active. This is to avoid low performance of your machine. If you encounter this issue, you can simply deactivate windows defender and continue to use ESET + Malwarebytes.
