I have been computer free for probably 15ish years until I recently bought and set up a RPi4 with Linux. It’s been fun but I’m not really a super user so I’m looking to back to Windows as my main OS.

  1. is antivirus a necessity? I will be gaming and streaming on my new setup.

If yes then

  1. what are some ideal options? Paid or free.

Thanks for your responses in advance.

    Also I would stick with Linux you don’t need to be a super user to get a good healthy setup that works well

      Yeah I’m going to run VM because I do enjoy working via the terminal, and I quite like the “hands on” feeling of Linux. I think some of my woes are just due to the fact I’m using a SBC as my main computer.
