    Fantastic as a startup disk, works great.. This is a great tool for locating unwanted malware, Trojans, etc. I have used it and it works great. I use this on a startup disk so nothing else is loaded on the computer.

    Windows Defender Offline needs some instructions.. I know the software is in Beta but information about how it works and how to run it would be nice.

    Awesome product, worked when nothing else would. Highly recommend.. My system suggested that I download and install this program because of a virus I couldn't get rid or. The virus was a tricky bugger. Win defender was easy to download and I downloaded to a usb. Restarted the computer from the usb and it immediately went to work at fixing my computer offline. Problem solved, no more issues.. I would recommend any time. Pros: ease of use
