As long as you have no third party anti virus program, Window Defender is active and running all the time. Do a search for Windows Defender in the charms bar or just type in the Start Screen then click it.

@Nuccii , I know that is active all the time. But I don't have a 3rd party anti virus and I want to be able to scan any files or usb or drive at my command.

@ered, Open Windows Defender as I stated in my posts and from there you can do a Quick Scan.
