You complain about nonsense and than go forward and spread some on your own. You saying that SmartScreen and Defender slows down a Windows machine by a factor of 2 just makes you a nonsense clown.

Yes, I was wrong - its not by a factor of 2, more like a factor or 3 to 5. The best way to make your computer age 10 years in a second is to enable ANY antivirus. There are so many places that you can check that out if you didn't experience it, or u need me to LMGTFY ?

So you decide to double down on your wrongness? Windows Defender has a marginal impact on performance, such that for most users and most tasks it's not even perceptible.

> need me to LMGTFY

You've provided zero evidence to the contrary. The burden of proof is on you.

This is utter nonsense.

It's maybe the case if you're running a 15+ year old PC with the slowest spinning rust disk and 1GB of RAM.
