Microsoft Windows Defender is a basic antivirus antimalware utility that comes integrated with Windows 10. Since it is an integrated part of the operating system, cannot be completely uninstalled, however it will drop cooperatively to the background if you install another antivirus or antimalware program on your computer.
With a brand new factory built desktop computer, it should have the activation key for Windows already in place. If this issue comes up, you should check into your Settings, go to Update & Security and then go to the Activation section. You should have an option for a trouble-shooter there and follow the prompts and that should activate Windows. Another thing to check would be that your computer’s date, time, and time zone are correct.
When setting up your Windows 10, you may choose to instead go with an Offline Account or Local Account. This will allow you to set up an account on your computer that is not associated with a Microsoft Account and is only specific to this computer. To reach this option, you will need to not be connected to the internet while you are setting things up.
A Recovery Disc or Operating System Disc is used when the Operating System has become unusable, due to file corruption, virus or hardware malfunction. Most newer computers rely instead on either a recovery partition originally included on the hard drive or a recovery image that you might have made on an external drive when you first set up the computer. These are rarely needed these days, however when they are needed they are sure nice to have around.
Keeping an up-to-date backup of your data is critical if you have files on the system that you do not want to lose. If your computer gets infected by a virus or if the hard drive fails, you may lose all information on the computer. Keeping information saved on an external hard drive, or other storage media using backup software, ensures that it will always be available to restore. When failures happen, the operating system and programs can be somewhat easily reinstalled using a recovery of some kind, however your personal data cannot be replaced unless you have backed it up somewhere before a failure occurs.
