How to check your PC or Laptop for Viruses? In this tutorial, I show you how to scan your computer for a virus. To check our PC for viruses we use the free built-in antivirus call Windows Security Defender on both Windows 10 and Windows 11. With this we can check individual files on our computer for a virus or scan our entire hard drive for viruses. Let me know in the comments if you have any questions while you check your PC for viruses.
