However, some customers are not happy with the subscription length and compatibility issues with other software.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    Had this on my other computer and it was not the best. Still got virus and malware. They give you a 3 month trial with a new computer but don't waste your time. Go to the web and do some research and find the right program for you. There are some excellent ones out there.

    Windows 10 Defender and Firewall do everything you will need to protect your computer already. This software is very suspect, particularly with all the follow up requests from Best Buy to install it on my system. Makes me believe it's some sort of malware.
