Honestly, this is actually a good question. I would have normally suggested
Cisco's windows free endpoint software: https://www.immunet.com/
But as you can see, they are stopping support at the beginning of next year.

Window's built-in Defender is usually good enough for me, but Cisco might
have something else in the works to replace Immunet?

Subject: Bitdefender Antivirus Plus slows down my computers to a crawl

Good day from Singapore,

When I was using Windows 10 Home on my home desktop computer, Bitdefender
Antivirus Plus slows down my home computer (and also my Aftershock gaming
laptop) to a crawl.

[1] Opening Google Chrome web browser took a very long time.

[2] Opening websites took a very long time (Google Chrome tabs are
frequently not responding).

[3] Opening MP4 and other videos with VLC video player took a very long
time.

Uninstalling Bitdefender Antivirus Plus could not solve the performance
degradation issue.

I was forced to upgrade to Windows 11 Home. But it is free.

Bitdefender Antivirus Plus worked well with Windows 11 Home for a while.

After some time, it began to slow down my computer again.

[1] Opening Google Chrome web browser took a very long time.

[2] Opening websites took a very long time (Google Chrome tabs are
frequently not responding).

[3] Opening MP4 and other videos with VLC video player took a very long
time.

This time round, I was able to solve the issue by uninstalling Bitdefender
Antivirus Plus. But I had to uninstall all the 3 components, namely,
Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, Bitdefender VPN, and Bitdefender Agent. You must
uninstall Bitdefender Agent component to solve the performance degradation
issue.

My Windows 11 Home computer is able to go back to blazing fast speeds after
uninstalling Bitdefender Antivirus Plus completely.

When can we have ClamAV Antivirus for Windows 10/11 with Real Time
Protection together with Ransomware Protection? I realize that I cannot use
Bitdefender Antivirus Plus any more, because it will slow down my computers
again. I have wasted my money purchasing Bitdefender Antivirus Plus.

I am hoping Cisco will develop ClamAV Antivirus for Windows 10/11 with Real
Time Protection together with Ransomware Protection. But I have no idea when
that will happen.

Thank you.

Regards,

There's a Windows installer on the clamav site. Does that not work for Windows 11? I haven't used Clamav on any of my Windows computers yet.
