This is really great, but the real question is will users actually see this on a default Lenovo OS build? Can anyone confirm that Defender doesn't get disabled in favor or say... McAfee or Symantec?

Per OEM appeasement, if there is a 3rd party AV software installed, Windows Defender auto-disables. So many Lenovo users will have an issue.
