Windows Defender is a free antivirus program that is pre-installed on Windows 10 to protect your computer from virus attacks, rootkits, spyware, and other malicious code.
A virus and malware can infect your personal computer in many ways such as: via USB, e-mail, visiting malicious websites, and the most common one, pirated software.
To remove viruses on your Windows computer using Windows Defender do the following:
