This shows up in Windows notifications every new day I use the computer: "Microsoft Defender Antivirus did not find any threats since your last summary."

It seems to be based off the latest Windows Security (or Windows Defender) scan.

I'm seeing nothing in Settings to disable it. It's a pointless notification that's just distracting and annoying. I already assume my system is safe until something indicates that it's not. Copilot gave useless advice.

(This shouldn't need to be stated but for those that it does: I'm looking for any way to disable it, not just something in Settings.)

I wasn't going to respond since it seems your mind is set about security but will say that any computer connected to the Internet does take the risk of damaging infections and Windows Security/Windows Defender/Microsoft Security is there to prevent such issues. If using third-party software such as Bitdefender, AVG, Avast, Norton, etc., there probably will be such notifications, just shows its job is being done.
