    Never buy this product, it’s just a back door to viruses. After existence testing it couldn’t even detect a Trojan virus received from an email.

    I have worked in IT for over 40 years and could not get this software installed. The instructions did not jive with what was being presented. I gave up and installed security software that I already had a license for.

    Microsoft Defender is all you need and it’s free. Antivirus software like this slows your computer excessively and doesn’t work any better than Defender. Save your money.

      It is best to only install one security program on a computer at a time, knotier. We're sorry to hear that you prefer to continue using your other security program. trend-micro
