Oh ok ta. I have no idea what it’s running. I hardly ever use it but it’s less than 5 years old.
Edit, just looked and it’s running windows 10. There’s a windows 10 updater thingy that’s up to date.
Strangely I’ve just had a pop up telling me my McAfee subscription has lapsed ( hence my original question ) and near the bottom it says Microsoft Defender Antivirus will be defending it!
Hey ho, I should’ve waited 24 hours!
Cheers.
now uninstall that McAfee bloatware which will still be slowing down the laptop as it boots up and tells you to renew the sub, every day.

Got MalwareBytes with a 6 year end date free from my bank, which I no longer bank with, but it's still works,scans and updates
