totalav security

[IMac007]

I have used totalav virus protection for several years.

The price went sky high so i didnt renew.

Total av left the screen but it wont uninstall. It is still shown in my programs and when i try to uninstall it, a message pops up that im not authorised to uninstall. when i logged in to totalav it shows a current account still active but it isnt as i did not pay it.

Totalav provide  NO CONTACT METHOD.

Can you assist please and also tell me if microsoft security is a good anti virus and its the same as windows defender.

Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue

Yes! It’s the same as Windows Defender. It’s:

Built into Windows 11

Gets regular updates

Good for everyday protection

You don’t need to pay for other antivirus software unless you want extras.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
