Bitdefender Free Edition
A good, lightweight antivirus. It is cloud based so it requires very little of your computers resources. This requires a free account with Bitdefender using an email address.
- Added benefit: The ability to turn off the Antivirus. On new versions of Windows 10, you cannot turn off the built in Windows Defender. If you ever need to run a utility that is falsely seen as a virus, the only way to disable Windows Defender is to install a different antivirus that can be turned off. Bitdefender is small, quick to install, and can be turned off if you choose to do so.
