McAfee and windows defender issues?

Defender can scan om a periodic basis, so it is not "fully off".

This can be turned of fully using the defender settings.

Many mcafee user  options where removed or changed when intel

bought the company, the reason I moved to another section.  

  Defender and windows firewall are more win10 friendly then 3rd party 

programs, but in my opinion not as secure. 

Using more then one antivirus-firewall maybe"ok" as far as win 10 -ms states,

but have had issues doing so in the past. 

The best security is between the chair and the Keyboard.  Be careful what you click and where you go.

When downloading uncheck all of the extras that may not work or have malware in them.

Use Windows Defender which is a true superstar in protection and compatibility.

Hope this helps.
