Windows Defender is 22.5 MB - is it legit?
Hi All -
I am curious why this latest definition is so large (Definition 1.173.27.0). I'm surprised there's no information on the web about it. I've searched and there's no mention of this definition specifically (other than to download it).
The links inside Windows update, "More information" and "Support information" are useless.
I don't remember seeing a definition this huge - 22.5 MB. Normally they are a few KB or maybe a few hundred KB. But 22.5 Megabytes?
Anyway - I'm just looking for a little reassurance I guess, that this update is safe to install.
Thank you very much folks!
