    Question: I have other PC's in the household running Avast 17.8.2318, Namely Moms--Windows 10 Fall Creators 1709 X64 Pro Desktop and secondary little WIndows 7 Intel Atom system, So am I safe if I leave Avast active, and possibly not get this update, or should I briefly uninstall Avast and install this update, then reinstall Avast

    IMO, you should at least temporarily disable Avast, make sure Defender is active, and get the update. It's for a new Antimalware Engine, it's important. Then re-enable Avast if you wish. Never avoid security updates, if possible.

  6. Ok will do that, and get it taken care of asap here in a few minutes

    Getting update now! 2 Machines are using Defender as Protection/Malwarebytes 3, not 100 percent sure I fully trust Defender for protection yet, as last 14 years used Avast Free lol
