Using Kaspersky Security Cloud FREE Antivirus With Windows 10 Updates

I can't speak for Kaspersky, but I've been running Bitdefender Internet Security on Win 10.
Supposedly it works "with" Defender.

As for updates, I've had no trouble with them.

 

Using Kaspersky Security Cloud FREE Antivirus With Windows 10 Updates

I have several Windows 7 machines and use Kaspersky Security Cloud Free and find it very comprehensive and low on system resources.

On my Windows 10 machines I rely on Defender and in my opinion the jury is out and hasn't come up with a verdict yet as to its competence.. One of my Windows 10 machines has been acting oddly but nothing I can be 100% confident of. What I do know is that trying a full scan on the suspect machine takes hours and i give up after its supposedly processed over one million files ! I don't use the machines much either, so do not have a million files on any one machine.

This is where Kaspersky steps in . i would like to instal it on at least one of the machines and i understand that it will automatically disable Defender in the process.

I have read when using something other than Defender it can sometimes cause problems with Windows Updates unless that is a myth. If it is indeed true would it be possible to use the "pause protection" option that comes with Kaspersky to overcome this, or would I need to disable it further. Pausing Kaspersky changes the icon in the tray from green to red.

 

Antivirus Provider that is no longer on the PC

Hello, I have two different listings of an Antivirus Provider in Windows Defender Antivirus one being Kaspersky Security Cloud the other being Bitdefender. I am currently unable to remove Kaspersky Security Cloud keys in Registry Editor. I no longer use that Antivirus and somehow it's stuck and unremovable as I've tried to remove it manually but somehow it's shown up in Belarc Advisor.
