Use the defog button.
Modern cars come with a button that solves your fogging problem quite easily. It's a button with three arrows that squiggle up. When you push it, it shoots air on the windshields and balances the temperature, ultimately getting rid of the condensation!
Change the AC settings.
Changing the AC setting will help you with adjusting the temperature inside and outside the car. The reduced temperature will result in defrosting windows and windshields.

Open your windows slightly.
This is not advisable during the rainy season, but slightly opening your windows in the summer or winter will let the warmth out and maintain an equal temperature, leading to defogging of the windows and windshields. It's an easy way to clean windows and windshields and will improve visibility, allowing you to drive properly.
Wipe the windshields and windows.
Fog is just condensed water droplets, right? And your windshield wipers are made to remove water from the glass. During the summer, you can easily turn on your wipers and simply and slowly wipe the condensation away. If it's still wet, use a soft, clean cloth and wipe the excess water from all the glass surfaces.

Use silicon balls.
Dehumidifiers might be heavy on your wallet. So a cheaper way of getting rid of that humidity inside the car is to put some silica balls on your dashboard. They absorb the extra moisture from their surroundings. When some silica balls are wrapped in a cloth, and when it's completely soaked, change the whole thing.
Shaving Foam
Shaving foam can also come in handy for defogging your windows and windshields. Take a handful of foam and apply it to your car windows. Let it sit for two or three minutes before cleaning it off with a clean cloth. The foam will create a protective layer and will prevent the moisture from collecting on the windows.
These are a few of the easiest and cheapest methods for you to defog your car and drive all around the year safely and securely. Follow these simple steps and you'll be perfectly fine to drive your vehicle!
