What is Smart App Control?
Smart App Control is a feature in Windows 11 that screens apps before they run on your device. It checks the reputation of apps using a cloud-powered security service to determine if they are safe. If an app is deemed safe, it will run; if not, Smart App Control will block it, helping to reduce the risk of malware.
How does Windows 11 protect against malware?
Windows 11 includes Microsoft Defender antivirus, which offers real-time protection against viruses and malware. This antivirus solution is regularly updated to address new threats, ensuring that your device remains secure while you browse the internet, download files, and use apps.
Why should I upgrade to Windows 11?
Upgrading to Windows 11 is essential because Microsoft will end support for Windows 10 on October 14, 2025. This means no more software updates, technical assistance, or security fixes for Windows 10. By transitioning to Windows 11, you gain access to the latest security features, including Smart App Control and enhanced antivirus protection.
