    Problems with AVG & Avast


    I'm having problems with both AVG and Avast...Of course those are both the free ones.

    So I'm looking for a different antivirus that is free and doesn't conflict with other programs.

    I have malwarebytes installed but I don't feel secure enough with just that. I used Avast for a long time (it always stopped viruses for me) but it's conflicting with other things so much that whenever I go to troubleshoot something the common answer I'm giving is it's Avast...get rid of Avast.

    :)

    I also use Defender and the Premium version of Malwarebytes. I suggest if you go that route, To set MB to never register in the action center.
