I have been using win 8.1 for 1 year now. Do NOT install any other anti-virus. Windows Defender, which includes a very good anti-virus + auto-updates itself regularly, is all that ou need. It does NOT play well with other anti-virus apps. So, if you were to install AVG (as I did at first) all sorts of odd problems arise and basically nothing works.
I did some research (a year ago) and basically the consensus is that it is best to just use Windows Defender. You have to un-install all other antivirus apps. I also installed a free malware scanning app. There are probably some antivirus programs that work at this point with win 8.1. But I have not had any problems. (t-t-t)
