Dr.Web vs Windows Defender


I believe that Windows Defender is better than Dr.Web!
I have used both Anti Virus programs on my own pc. And have carefully tested both in virtual environments as well. You can see the test results in the comparison table below. Where it is obvious that Windows Defender is a better choice than Dr.Web!
