Windows 10: List of Anti-Viruses working in Windows 10 TP

Thanks for the information, AVG removed from the list.

Cheers! It still might work but would have to be reinstalled. I think I'll keep WD for a while.

So I went to get McAfee Free Version and obviously downloaded it from the WRONG site, shame on ME. It was infected with Malware, Defender caught it while I was attempting to install it but didn't prevent it completely. I was getting pop ups everywhere on my browser.

I went and loaded Malwarebytes and eradicated the little bugger.

Sounds like Avast is working so I may try that one for a bit.

 

Every site is the wrong site for McAfee !
Why not skip the Avast and stick with the two who just helped you out of the mess ?

 

So did you have to apply any compatibility changes to get it to load? I'm running 9926 and the installer would not let me load the software.

I was getting that while trying to install Webroot on 9879 build. I followed every way in the book but couldn't stop the PCA from popping up. Posted that in a Technet area. Finally, after no responses one person stated to try renaming it. The normal file name was "wsainstall.exe" so I renamed it "wrsa.exe" and that worked. Didn't even bother to try the normal name with 9926 just renamed it, no problem again.

 

Hi, I have info's for you.

Panda Free Antivirus 15.1.0 Full Installer is working.

I have installed it and it seems to run good except one same error message (while closing the main "Panda Free Antivirus" window):

I use Avast Premier, works fine on Windows 10

 

I agree why use something that doesn't do better then defender,

 

It comes down to personal preference. For a free AV defender is just OK and there are others that are a bit better. But I could not justify buying an AV. defender with a version of malware-bytes is the way to go, IMO.

 

FWIW, my Norton 360 suite (bought and paid for) will definitely NOT work. Won't install due to compatibility issues.

 

I have McAfee LiveSafe Internet Security install on my windows8.1 Laptop that I have paid for do you know if that will work with windows 10 that I am waiting for on 29th July

 

When i installed Win10 (Bld. 10130) over Win8.1 on my Acer laptop, the Windows installer removed McAfee LiveSafe completely. I ran the cleanup tool from their site to remove registry entries that had not yet been removed (lots of them!)

I thought of trying to reinstall it to see if it would work - i can't remember if i'm running McAfee on my desktop or not??

Either way, i'd just use Windows Defender and wait till the 29th, do a fresh install of whatever build is the current one - probably by that time McAfee will have an updated version on their site you (and i) can download from our account files.

 

Thanks for your reply knowing McAfee they probably will have a version for windows 10 and roll on the 29th cant wait to install it

 

I like using avg anti virus. I tried to install it on 10; but it said its not compatible with this version of windows. The thing is though; since i thought for sure it would be compatible with windows 8; I thought maybe it would work with 10; but so far its been a no go on this one.
