When we got our computer last year, we uninstalled McAfee and installed AVAST! free. Yesterday we got a popup which says our PC has been unprotected for 37 days and to update or security protection now to turn off this reminder. It further says that we can turn on Windows Defender. If I turn on Windows Defender, will that fight with AVAST! free?
Yes, two antiviruses can’t be run together, it will make conflicting some time. Eventually, You have to uninstall one of them. Thanks
Our device was locked by Mcafree what should we do to unlocked? We’re not using any pincode.
