    It's very invasive and it actually deleted my contacts during my first full scan. I contacted the company but that only led to more frustration on my part. Can't get them back.

    Pretty sure I wasted my money on this, because it has an “expiration date” to be used by and I bought the iPad for a gift, a month before the birthday

    Not needed in today's world. Be smart and use windows built-in antivirus. Add on Malwarebytes (free) and you're good to go for the most part.
