Find out which antivirus program is active?

Hall I have a question

I have several antivirus programs on my laptop (Windows 10) how do I know which is activated.

You should basically just run ONE (good) antivirus program on the machine, because several only slow down each other and unnecessarily allocate resources.

Yes I know I have only 1 (I hope) run I just want to know how I experience which is activated

First of all, you should only have one installed, so that not one antivirus tool "recognizes" the comparison virus signatures of the other as a virus.

You can still control the processes of the Task Manager, if there are others running.

Many anti-virus tools can't really be deactivated (even if the menu item is so named).

Some anti-virus programs can only be installed if other existing anti-virus programs are uninstalled and removed.

Example: Norton Security

Windows Defender automatically goes down - inactive.

Ah, good idea, thank you
