1. Scanning with Windows Defender
NOTE: There are alternatives to Microsoft's Windows Defender on the market, but it is advisable to only have one anti-malware software application running at one time.
For information about other applications available, see Dell Knowledge Base article How to Identify and Repair Malware or Virus Infected Systems.
Windows 10
Windows Defender is integrated to Windows 10. No installation or subscription is required.
-
In Cortana or the search box at the bottom of the Start menu, type Defender.
-
From the results select Windows Defender Security Center. (shield icon)
-
This opens the Windows Defender Security Center window.
-
Under Scan History, you see the gray button for Quick Scan.
NOTE: Clicking Advanced Scan gives you three different types of scans:
- Full Scan: Best run when the system is not planned to be in use, as this scans as many running files and programs as possible.
- Custom Scan: This allows you to select which folders to scan.
- Windows Defender Offline Scan: This option lets you restart Windows and runs a scan before the systems operating system has fully loaded. This is helpful to find and remove malware that is difficult to remove while Windows is up and running.
