Thread: What is the best anti virus software to get?

  1. #211
    Windows Defender should honestly be enough, I think for the most part the user's behaviour is responsible if they are infected, if you keep your eyes open and act cautiously I think there shouldn't be any problems

    Windows Defender will still do scheduled quick scans, autoupdates and event traces even when supposedly disabled. Here's how to kill it for good if you don't need it.

    • Disable anti-tamper protection
    • Get TrustedInstaller privileges (mandatory; see https://github.com/jschicht/RunAsTI)
    • Run the commands below
      Code:
      reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Defender Security Center\Notifications" /v "DisableEnhancedNotifications" /t REG_DWORD /d 0x1 /f
      reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Defender Security Center\Notifications" /v "DisableNotifications" /t REG_DWORD /d 0x1 /f
      reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Defender Security Center\Virus and threat protection" /v "SummaryNotificationDisabled" /t REG_DWORD /d 0x1 /f
      reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Defender Security Center\Virus and threat protection" /v "NoActionNotificationDisabled" /t REG_DWORD /d 0x1 /f
      reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Defender Security Center\Virus and threat protection" /v "FilesBlockedNotificationDisabled" /t REG_DWORD /d 0x1 /f
      reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Real-Time Protection" /v "DisableRealtimeMonitoring" /t REG_DWORD /d 0x1 /f

    Just started using Bitdefender Total Security (fanatical.com deal).. so far not too shabby.

    For a new Dell laptop with Windows 7 Professional, I recommend using a reputable antivirus solution like Bitdefender, Norton, or Kaspersky. These are known for effective protection without significant system slowdowns. Make sure to keep the antivirus software updated for the latest security features.

    And where can you buy a new Dell laptop with Windows 7, which came out on 2009 and became unsupported four years ago?

    for windows user there is no need of any antivirus because Windows have already built in Windows defender
