Looking to purchase a HP Elitebook 840 G5. If it comes with Windows Defender, is any other anti-virus software needed? All online answers contradict each other..."shouldn't need it with Windows Defender, but always good to install anti-virus software". Which answer is correct?

Windows Defender comes automatically with PCs preloaded by Windows 10 -- you don't have a choice in that.
New HP PCs also generally come with McAfee antivirus preload -- although that is a trial subscription. When that expires, Windows Defender automatically loads.
