In some cases, you may be asked which version of Windows Defender you have installed. Whether it's an IT person helping us fix our PC, or a fellow Windows Defender enthusiast. Knowing which version we have installed can also help us when it comes to finding solutions to problems we are having, or to find solutions.

About Windows Defender:

Before I start with the steps, I'd like to take a moment to explain a little about the Windows Security application.

Windows Defender:

It is important to say, that the main purpose of this application is to grant control features to the user who can explore and control the privacy and security settings in a more accessible way with the help of this application.

Unfortunately, Microsoft explains little about how to find out data about Windows Defender. This tutorial is intended to clear up that confusion.

We're not sure how to do that.

Which version do I have?

  1. You can find out which version of Windows Defender you have installed by following these instructions: Go to the magnifying glass on the main Windows screen and enter "windows security":
Windows Security
Windows Security

2. Once the "Windows Security" tab opens, click on "Settings":

Windows Security - Settings
Windows Security - Settings

3. When the "settings" tab of "Windows Security" opens, click on "about"

Windows Security - About
Windows Security - About

4. And that's it! There we have it, under "Anti-malware client version" we can see which is the currently installed version of Windows Defender:

You can also find other important information such as the Engine version, the current antivirus version, and the antispyware version.
