  1. Hi all, just a little bit of advice please. I have the premium version, and have it running along side defender . The updating works when i do it manually , but do not think it is working automatically . I have it set to check and update at the 1 hour . I even put an exception in firewall to make sure was not being blocked . I only ask this , as ever time i click update manually at the start of my day for example it has an update , it never seems to do it on its own even if the pc is left on all night , Its not a major thing really i can check manually every day . I just waited an hour or so, and nothing but when i checked manually it installed an update . i have everything set as standard settings. Is this a big issue ?
  2. Thank you for that , so i do not have to make any other changes to avoid any conflicts ?
  3. Hi all, so have upgraded from the free version . On install i selected the option to not make it appear in windows security . I think this is the way to make sure they are both running along side each other ? . If so do i need to make any changes to anything else at all, or is that all i need to do, or would there be conflicts ?. If so could you please explain to a total pc noob how to do that. Thank you regards Lee
  4. Thank you very much , i have a lot better understanding now , and having both running will give me extra security . Thanks again Regards Lee
  5. Thank you very much , that was an interesting read , it helped me understand why people run both . I deselected the always register option. and now i assume that defender is running as well as bytes, for extra protection ?
  6. Just little question , as i am just interested in this. How does this work ? Is it just every now and again it will allow defender to check for infections automatically , if you have this option selected ? i am very happy with bytes as it has cured issues with my pc after one scan , i really thought i was going to have to reinstall windows . i do not know how it did it, but one scan , and quarantine and my issues never returned , web pages was loading so slow, not connecting good to online clients like origin, web pages trying to load and getting could not connect a lot of the time , tried new cables, a different router , and one scan from bytes corrected all my issues Have read on reviews that the premium is a good stand alone anti virus now, but i see a lot of people still running other av, any reason for this ? Thank you again
  7. Thank you for the reply. yes i would like a guide for the defender as well if possible. yes the pup i would say is the browser , i am using chrome, did i read correct that i am better to use another browser ?:)
  8. Hi all. Just started my 14 day trial , and installed . Just a couple of questions if possible . I have selected the windows defender to scan periodically option , Is that ok?. ?Does it mean it will also help out or do i need more protection on top of premium and periodic defender scan ? And another question on scans, all i have seen is everything pup optional , Are these a common thing to see on scans , And would you see them on most scans , In other words does web activity create a pup optional for example, that would show up in scans , and other normal activities would create these on scans ? Thank you for your time best regards stay safe :)
