    Hi dougYG,

    I'm Paul and I'm here to help you with your concern.

    Windows Defender should be turned ON by default.

    Anyway, Can you still check Windows Security?

    Open Settings > Privacy & Security > click Windows Security > click Virus & Threat Protection > click click Virus & Threat Protection settings > Turn ON Real-time protection.

    I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and keep me posted.
