Check the latest updates for Windows security fixes.
During Windows updates and downloading security patches, do these affect separate antivirus software you may have? These patches typically focus on system-level fixes rather than individual virus definitions.
Windows security updates modify files on your device, similar to a game patch. These aren't always identical to the fixes provided by antivirus software. For instance, there could be a poorly written snippet in Internet Explorer that lets someone access your webcam and view your keystrokes. This isn't a virus, but it's an issue that requires resolution, which is why Microsoft releases updates to address it.
