My 5-step security checklist for every new Windows PC

Windows 11 Pro, Enterprise, and Education editions include BitLocker, a tool that encrypts the system drive to protect against unauthorized access. BitLocker requires a 48-digit recovery key for access if the device is compromised. A Trusted Platform Module (TPM) chip is necessary for BitLocker to function, which is standard in most computers made in the last eight to nine years. To enable BitLocker, users must open File Explorer, right-click the system drive, select "Turn on BitLocker," back up the recovery key, choose the encryption portion, and run a system check to start the encryption process.

Free vs. Paid Antivirus: Is Paying for Protection Really Worth It?

Antivirus companies often offer free protection to build brand awareness, but many restrict their free versions to non-commercial use. Examples include Avast One Basic, AVG AntiVirus Free, Avira Free Security, and Panda Free Antivirus. Free antivirus software typically comes with limited tech support, with direct assistance reserved for paying customers. Key features may be missing in free versions, such as the ability to redirect users from dangerous websites or real-time protection. Microsoft Defender Antivirus is a built-in option that activates when no other antivirus is present but can be cumbersome and has limited protection against malicious URLs outside the Edge browser. Avast One Basic and AVG AntiVirus Free are recognized as top free options, but leading commercial products like Norton AntiVirus Plus and Bitdefender Antivirus Plus consistently outperform them. Both Norton and Bitdefender offer enhanced features beyond basic antivirus capabilities. While free antivirus can be effective, paid solutions provide greater protection and peace of mind.
