Suggest me a good anti virus for my laptop

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

Except windows defender I have rarely used any anti virus. I did use AVG free and some others but always ended up uninstalling them. But lately I am feeling to have a good anti virus in my system. A free version will do the job for me. But my problem is to find a good one.

Can anyone help me a bit with some information to find which one will be better?

Thanks

I have been using for several years Kaspersky on my windows machine, also good cheker for malware etc malwarebytes.com, both have trial period and malwarebytes have i free version that works excellent for me.

Just use the default Windows Defender, and download the free version of Malwarebytes[1] just for scanning purposes and you're most likely going to be fine as long as you don't blindly download random crap on torrent sites or on the internet in general. Had this setup on my Windows device since a decade ago and I never had any malware problems ever since.

Knowledge and being really careful > software in my opinion.

P.S. Always update your Windows OS for the security updates.

Eset NOD32 which ive been using for years now.. Here's some key for the license BGTC-X6KM-B4JN-P47V-WSW7  ..
You can make use on others too like Avast or MB which had been suggested above.

I'm interested trying this anti virus. Does the license key can only be use once?

Did you buy this key and generously share here? Or it comes from a keygen?
I second mk4 suggestion. Been using Malwarebytes and Defender too since years ago and no virus or malware whatsoever, as long as we don't do something stupid like giving some random app full priviledge without scanning it first.

If you don't browse so many websites which contain anything, it is enough to have just Windows Defender. I am afraid if you use another antivirus, it cannot scan better because both antiviruses will have a different method to scan the virus.

MalwareBytes can be a good choice to scan the virus, and Windows Defender will kick that virus to quarantine

It's likely cracked and the AV would immediately revoke its validity the moment its detected.

License keys are usually valid for a time period, such as 1 year and cannot be shared among other devices.

Avast offered one year free trial and 1 month free trial for their internet security software not sure that offer still exists or not but I am not using any antiirus other than the defender now a days because most of the time it causing more harm that good to the system like deleting system files will result in the problem in our OS.

Try the following

I suggest this since they are good antivirus
Malware Hunter
SuperAntispyware
Malwarebytes

[Negotiation]

A good antivirus for laptops is Windows Defender It's a good computer to attack by something Windows Defender lets you delete everything one by one. There is no chance of damage Malware Hunter won't be able to catch all the bugs in the computer.

Thanks everyone for all suggestions and recommendations. I am using Malwarebytes now but the thing I do not like about it is, it slows my system lol. When I am working it starts scheduled scanning. I set it up for once a week.

Most probably I will get rid of it very soon and be happy with what I had before [Windows defender] 🤪

Even Windows Defender runs scheduled scans.

If you're worried about performance impact, get yourself an SSD. You'll be amazed at how blazingly fast it is.

I'm about to suggest Malwarebytes too if you're just looking for a free one.

But so far so good Windows Defender works perfectly for me though.

To be honest I find Windows Defender good enough. As long as you don’t go on shady torrent & porn sites you should be fine with just Windows Defender.
