However, this changed a year or two ago and they now conflict, and can crash Windows. There were actually instructions in the MB forum on how to configure this so that they would work in harmony. I could get into why, but it would be pretty technical and lead of a very long comment.įor the longest I was successfully using both Avast and MBP together, both with active protection turned on, because Avast was one of the few AV programs that could be customized to work with MBs. I starting supporting MBs when they were still a startup company and they have done pretty well to keep my computer safe, although I have never relied on them completely alone. Hey OP, I know I am well late and you have made your decisions by now, but I just wanted to share a little bit, as evolving cyber security is going to be a constant for everyone. The paid version does include realtime scanning, so it'll actively block malware before it can get on your device.ĭoes MalwareBytes have any issues I should know of? It doesn't do any kind of realtime analysis or scans, so it doesn't prevent infection but rather just helps clean it up. The free version is basically just a malware removal tool. What do you get out of MalwareBytes Premium compared to the free version of MalwareBytes? They might clash from time to time and it'll hurt the overall performance of your PC as both of them will be checking everything simultaneously. Running two antivirus applications is a bad idea. Is it okay to have BOTH McAfee and MalwareBytes installed on my computer? I don’t want them to interfere with each other or anything. Happens to every application every once in a while. There's been some few bad updates over the years but that's not unusual. MalwareBytes is becoming worse through the updates
