    3rd party antivirus software


    I'm thinking about getting Trend Micro antivirus software for my laptop. Is Trend Micro compatible with Windows 10 Home version 1803? Has anyone used Trend Micro and if so, how do you like it? Thank you for your time.

    :)

    3rd party antivirus/firewall and win10

    Antivirus; the attempt by Microsoft to remove (uninstall) or limit 3rd party antivirus and firewalls is truly overreach.

    This action is purely designed to make the win10 systems allow Microsoft products and setting not be blocked by other software.

    Automatically turning on the built in defender and windows firewall before a 3rd party product has finished updating, being completely uninstalled or temporally paused should not invoke win10 to restart its built in products, but it does infract do this.

    This is true for any pc that has any win10 files including the get win10 gwx program in win7 and 8.1.

    This corrupts the installation of 3rd party product's so as to not allow the program to use its full capacity, there by making the system venerable.

    The only option is to have to uninstall the 3rd party software and reinstall, this can be a real pain to reconfigure on every win10 updates build.

    I can only think that this is also why Microsoft is making it difficult to use any other system protection but its own.

    A big step in the wrong direction.

    3rd party antivirus software

    Do you still need to use a 3rd party AntiVirus software in the creators update?

    Do i still need to use a 3rd party antivirus software or the latest Windows Defender Security center is enough?
