However, Windows Defender in Windows 8 is not MSE. It's more robust.
Main differences:
Windows 8 Defender:
Has built-in antivirus
Doesn't have "Scan this file" feature (not a big deal, all new files get scanned automatically anyway so ...)
Has Anti-malware software (users no longer need to download and install it manually)
Can't be uninstalled, only disabled
MSE
Has built-in antivirus
Can't be installed in Widows 8
Has "Scan this file" context menu
Doesn't have Anti-malware software (users need to download and install it manually)
Can be uninstalled
Users who upgrade from Win7 to 8 need to uninstall MSE first

You mean Windows 7 doesnt have Anti-malware software. I say this because thats what MSE is. Anti-malware software for Windows 7.
