Njengaku-Windows 8, inguqulo entsha ye-Windows 10 ifaka isitolo sohlelo lokusebenza esimaphakathi esiveza isoftware eyenzelwe kokubili ideskithophu yakudala kanye nokusekelwa kwamadivayisi wokuthinta. Banendawo kuwo izicelo zabantu besithathu njengoba kwenzeka ezitolo ezifanayo zamanye amadivayisi lokho kungaba yingozi uma ikhodi yakho ingalungiswanga kahle.
Yize lezi zinhlobo zezinhlelo zokusebenza zingakhutshazwa, iMicrosoft inqume ukufaka uhlelo olubizwa Ukulinda Idivayisi, egxile ikakhulu ku- abasebenzisi bezindawo zebhizinisi. Ngale ndlela, inkampani ingakhawulela noma ivimbele ukufakwa kwayo yonke isoftware engaveli esitolo futhi izoshiya isinqumo sokuyifaka ohlelweni kumsebenzisi wokugcina.
Ngaphezu kokwenza leli sheke, ukusebenza okufana kakhulu nokwethulwe yiMicrosoft lapho umsebenzisi oqaphile ukwenziwa kwezinhlelo noma amafayela okwakungaziwa imvelaphi yawo (ikakhulukazi evela kwi-Intanethi), kuzoqinisekiswa uma ngabe Umsuka wohlelo unokwethenjelwa noma cha. Ukwenza lokhu, abathuthukisi be-software bazoba nethuluzi abangasayina ngalo zonke izinhlelo zabo zokusebenza, inqubo esebenza kahle kakhulu ukuvikela ukwanda kwe-malware eSitolo.
Kepha ukusebenza kwe- Ukulinda Idivayisi akugcini lapha. Ngokuhambisana nethuba lokuqinisekisa umsuka nobunyoninco bombhali wohlelo lokusebenza, a imvelo yokubona ukuze behlukanisa izinhlelo zokusebenza kulo lonke uhlelo lokusebenza. Ngakho-ke, uma uhlelo ludinga ukufakwa kwalo kukhompyutha futhi lufaka i-malware ehlukahlukene, lusazovimbela noma yimuphi umsebenzisi ongagunyaziwe ukungena kudivayisi. Ithuluzi elihlinzeka ngenzuzo ecacile ngaphezu kwama-classic antivirus noma ama-anti-malware. Kodwa-ke, abakwaRedmond abakunqabelanga ukuthi basebenze ngokubambisana namanye ama-software abo okuphepha.
Okwamanje, abakhiqizi i-Acer, Fujitsu, HP, NCR, Lenovo, Par neToshiba basekela ukusetshenziswa kwe Ukulinda Idivayisi kumakhompyutha abo.
