I've been using Windows (or Microsoft...I can't remember what the official name is now) Defender for a while now. I don't recall on Windows 10 but now I've noticed that Antimalware Service Executable is listed twice in Task Manager as an active process...and can consume a notable amount of memory. Is this normal?
