Microsoft Defender Preview


I can't find this in the MS Store anywhere from my machine, and when I go to this link: (Buy Microsoft Defender Preview - Microsoft Store en-AU) it says: "Microsoft Defender Preview is currently not available."

Is this currently only available to certain locations?

I believe it is currently only in the USA maybe?
It is only currently in the US. You can change your region in settings to get it installed but to actually get it to show any content you’d need to go through a VPN and pick a US server

I've had this app for a few lots of (thanks @Bree for pointing that out) weeks but it's always said my account isn't authorised to use it yet, just had an update through the store for it and things have seemingly moved on, now I get this..........

Can anyone verify if they can actually use it, presumably the US first
Yes I have used it several years

You can keep the Cloud. I won't be storing my private data there.
