Using Windows Defender

To scan your computer and protect against spyware and malware, use the Windows Defender dialog box.

To open the Windows Defender window, do the following:
  1. Log in as an administrator.
  2. Go to Start > Control Panel > Windows Defender.

    The Windows Defender window is displayed. In the Home tab, select a scan option, and click Scan Now.

To configure and manage your thin client device, you can use anti-malware software settings in the Settings tab.
Windows Defender is anti-spyware software that is included with Windows and runs automatically when you turn on your thin client. Using anti-spyware software, helps you to protect the device against spyware and other potentially unwanted software. Spyware can be installed on your device without your knowledge any time you connect to the internet, and it can infect your computer when you install some programs using a CD, DVD, or other removable media. Spyware can also be programmed to run at unexpected times, not just when it is installed.
NOTE:Windows Defender updates automatically at 1:00 AM on second Sunday of every month.
