I found some issues with Windows Defender with latest antivirus definitions . I got the message "you are up to date" last time in virus definitions on my windows on 17 feb (my last update).

- 1. Malware detection rates are lower and slower than other AV programs.
- 2. Parental controls are limited to the Microsoft Edge browser.
- 3. The initial user interface is somewhat clunky and not easy to navigate.
- 4. PC system health report is basic (no performance boosting or additional system cleanup based on definitions are there).
- 5.There’s no cross-platform support (except enterprise users).
- 6. Windows defender becomes blank and crashes when we click on protection history . Needs to restart everytime to fix that one .
- 7. Sometimes restricts us from removing a malicious or some other programs from exceptions.
- 8. Protected folder access restricted me to restore system image when my windows crashed (earlier i had added some folders in protected folders from drive c which I don't require at that time but want to secure it tightly.)
- 9.Its not having additional tools which third-party antiviruses have, like a VPN, password manager , dark web monitoring, or identity theft protection
- 10 . This performes better in terms of known malware and malicious programs that's the thing i liked the most and i know that microsoft will keep working to make it better than anything and it will achieve its target soon , and my suggestions would help in accomplishing that task .
