I think maybe this was changed quite recently, but for a long time Windows 10/11 would send you periodic notifications that Defender had done a scan and found no threats. Pointless and briefly alarming; I do not expect to get AV notifications unless there's a problem.
I'm glad there's a GUI though, which lets you do a deep scan on boot and other stuff.
