#MALWAREBYTES WILL NOT INSTALL WINDOWS 7 PC#
Though the nature of the average virus or malware that your PC is most likely to face has changed from this model over the years, it used to be things that displayed unwanted ads and pop-ups, asked for money constantly, and periodically broke your machine were a working casual user definition of what one was trying to *avoid* with anti-virus software. However, it sounds like a gigantic pain in the you-know-what.Īt the same time, AVG and AVAST anyway were, last I checked some years ago, turning into very much ad-driven services with nagware in your face all the time. Now, maybe it could be said that Windows is breaking *them*, which in turn is breaking Windows. Meanwhile, it seems like I am reading about AVAST, AVG, Malwarebytes, etc. Sometimes if I really worry something might happen and WD can’t pick it up, I combine it with a Trend Micro Housecall scan (Which is not installed in a traditional sense, you run it from the cloud with a small exe you jump in the recycle bin after use, rather than installing it as a regular thing).
#MALWAREBYTES WILL NOT INSTALL WINDOWS 7 SOFTWARE#
I wonder if third-party anti-virus anti-malware software is worth the hassle anymore as a regularly used tool, especially on Windows 10.įor someone like me, the combination of Microsoft offering an expanded version of Windows Defender that includes an anti-virus along with it’s traditional malware protection and such, without charge or advertisements, that only does a hair worse in testing than the paid ad-ladden alternatives, was enough for me to switch years ago.
