Minimizing Server footprint
Hi everyone,
although this place seems rather empty to me, I'll hope that some feedback actually gets through. I did look at Feedback Hub Server category, as advised in the 17046 build announce...
They would look good if I had the time to sit and analyze. We don't have that much time for analysis, though, unfortunately, so I'm not surprised. Nor do we use SSDs on our servers. But ... if uninstalling Windows Defender, what then do you recommend to protect the server?
Removing Windows Defender was basically a part of an experiment. Generally we keep it. I do use devices without the Defender, but only in controlled environment, behind NAT and firewalls, or totally without physical connection outside.
Although on a single core 5W Atom, removing Windows Defender can make a world of difference in apparent performance.
Thanks for the advice. we'll definitely take it into consideration.
