The first logical

Windows Defender will automatically scan your computer for malware. The most
recent iteration of Windows Defender is not available on Windows 7 or Windows

Is
Windows Defender enough?
The short answer is no — not if you’re looking for a much more robust solution. As mentioned earlier, Defender will be enough for the average user.
But if we’re talking pure performance, there are third-party solutions out there that offer more protection and can be fine-tuned to meet specific needs. One tool we have always suggested in Malwarebytes反惡意軟件.

Reformatting Your PC
有時候
when users are forced to reformat their computers to remove malware. But before
you do, make sure you back up important files if it’s still possible for you to
這樣做。
造訪 設定 > 更新與安全 > 恢復。 下 重置此PC, 選擇 開始行動。 您將看到兩個選項。
保存我的文件 will reformat your computer without deleting your files. 刪除一切 will do just that – remove all files.

removing malware if you remove everything. However, you do so at the risk of
deleting files and settings.
