Depends on how Windows Defender is configured. If you're on the older Windows OS, Windows Defender isn't so great. However, it has improved with Windows 10.
Windows 10 has features of EMET (Enhanced Mitigation Emergency Toolkit) integrated which is very useful if configured properly.

Windows defender and other antiviruses won't keep you 100% safe, i will say you will be 30-40% safe depends on malware. Any antivirus can't stop the new ransomwares but you can improve your pc security with advanced antiviruses like eset, kaspersky
