Windows 10 has a built-in antivirus that's very effective, safe, and doesn't impact system usability. There's little reason for anyone on Windows 10 to run Symantec/Norton.

I have to disagree with this statement. It's kind of a resource pig, actually. When it got to the point it was affecting my day-to-day productivity, I deleted MsMpEng.exe from my hard drive, and now my machine is snappy and responsive again.

I used to have this problem, but then I configured it to run scans overnight.
