I have been computer free for probably 15ish years until I recently bought and set up a RPi4 with Linux. It’s been fun but I’m not really a super user so I’m looking to back to Windows as my main OS.
- is antivirus a necessity? I will be gaming and streaming on my new setup.
If yes then
- what are some ideal options? Paid or free.
Thanks for your responses in advance.
Like others have said, Windows Defender, but also an ad blocker extension for your web browser. I’d recommend Ad Nauseam -which is ublock origin under the hood- and Firefox over Chrome. All of those are free.
