Avira Antivirus & Total

[Ed Clark]

I had some issues with Avira yesterday and had to reinstall Total. That worked for a day and it caused issues again today. I ended up uninstalling Avira. Anybody else have this issue?

Used them along time ago and did not like the conflicts back then; have been running AVG for about 10 years, no problems. It's a choice, there are plenty of virus programs to choose from, so poke around.

I use AVAST. I believe Microsoft Defender is also a default program on Windows that is so-so.

Not the first time Avira caused major problems. >>

Windows Defender and Malwarebytes.

Malwarebytes for sure, had it for over 10 years and it is a good capture tool.
