I noticed that my comp. running both programs. Isn't this bad?

Not in the case of Windows 7 because Windows Defender is not a real antivirus solution.

It became a real avs in Windows 8...

    When it comes to antivirus software, you want one and only one installed and running on your computer.  Two or more may come into conflict with eachother and degrade performance.  I advise you to uninstall Windows defender and use soley mse.

    also I strongly suggest that you avoid using "PC optimization" tools.  They can help a little, but they often do more harm than good.

  • I need to keep Windows Defender and Microsoft Security Essentials installed?

    My question is, what do I need to keep Windows Defender installed too, or I can uninstall it.

    I have Microsoft Security Essentials installed and it works fine. I am running Vista 64 bit with service PK. 2 and the Defender is installed under Vista. Before MSE I used Windows Live One Care until my subscription has expired and that they did not renew it. At that point, I finally installed MSE. Windows defender can be uninstalled? It seems to be an unnecessary element in my Security Center.

    Hello

    No it can't be uninstalled

    It is part of the vista operating system

    by default must disable MSE, it

    If for any reason any MSE has not disabled it read this;

    read the information on the below link on how to disable the windows defender service in vista or make an autostart to enable

    http://www.groovypost.com/HOWTO/Microsoft/Vista/disable-Windows-Defender-service-in-Windows-Server-2008-or-Vista/

    and here is the method to remove it from startup in vista

    http://www.groovypost.com/HOWTO/Microsoft/Vista/remove-Windows-Defender-from-Vista-system-startup/

    and this is how you would normally activate or disable windows defender in vista from within defenders of own and options tools

    http://www.groovypost.com/HOWTO/Microsoft/Vista/disable-Windows-Defender-for-Microsoft-Vista/

    and this is a very good Anti-Malware/spyware program to use in place of Defender

    an anti-virus can not find any problems

    you need to scan with a good anti-malware program

    Download update and scan with the free malwarebytes anti-malware version

    (2) if I use windows defender in windows 8 pro, do you think that I still need 3rd party antivirus software to protect against viruses and malware?

    (3) can I activate and simultaneously run 3rd party software [McAfee] antivirus and windows Defender 8?

    (1) # Windows Defender is an anti-spyware, and Mcafee's anti-virus.

    (2) Yes

    (3) Yes

  • HP Pavilion Notebook 15-199sa: can I install more RAM and an SSD at the same time?

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion Notebook 15-p199sa I would like to be updated by installing an additional 8 GB of RAM and an SSD.

    I could do both at the same time, or it would be more advisable to do one at a time?

    Usually, I'd do one at a time, but take it apart the laptop and remove the motherboard are quite a job! I have a Ph D in breaking things and I know that if I take the laptop part twice then nothing good will come of it.

    I was considering also put the current HARD disk in the optical drive, but somewhere in the 20 pages of comments to this thread deals UK it is written the header on the motherboard for the DVD player is only SATA I - someone has a I experience to put a HDD in SATA optical drive? (or did someone knows if the header is really SATA I - the manual does not say).

    Otherwise, I could put the existing 1.5 TB of HARD drive in an external enclosure and connect it to a USB 3.0 port. The manual says to connect external drives to these ports is OK but it does not have all the features - would it be a good idea to use a powered USB 3.0 hub or a powered external case? (rather than using the bus power).

    Uh, that's all for now, I think

    John latter

    Hello

    Nothing prevents you to do both at the same time. I have half a dozen old records HARD in USB 3.0, USB 2.0 external enclosures and they work fine. They work on all of my laptops and more comfort than those who have power supplies (much smaller than now).

    Kind regards.

  • Is it possible to run windows defender and mcafee Security Center?

    Right now my windows Defender is disabled. If they we're running both would be conflicting firewalls?

    McAfee should turn off WD because it contains the same properties as WD and there would be a conflict. Give up the WD. I doubt you could get there anyway.

  • Envy 15 t-j000: upgrade of 15 t-j000 to win 10 and new SSD at the same time

    Hello

    My cell phone is 8 GB, 1 TB with the 24Go running Windows 8.1 MSSD.

    I want to upgrade to 10 windows, but do not want to 'upgrade' this particular configuration.  What I would do is update my 16 GB ram and my HD to a 1 TB SSD.

    (1) upgrade to 16 GB means that I can't use the WSSD of 24 GB than anything more correct?  I guess if I upgrade the essential motivation for one SSD I more need for MSSD. Or is - that's a good idea to upgrade the WSSD to 32 GB then the swap file on a drive "distinct"?  (is this obsolete technology, old school board?)

    (2) is there a way to download Windows 10 and burn on a DVD or USB installation and then install "fresh" of without first upgrading my mechanical drive Windows 8.1?  The reason is, I'm a student, I can't have my laptop down for awhile so I can't afford a 1/100 chance I'm going to kill my laptop and Miss assignments.  I think if I start the upgrade and have problems, I can put the old drive, remove the extra memory and get until I can afford more downtime.

    Anyway, any help on this is appreciated.  My computer works very well for being a 2 years, so if I can't do it a bit without pain, I'll go ahead and leave it as what.  Thanks for any idea you may have.

    The clean install with Windows 10 will require that buy you it and the upgrade is free, updates and I did probably 15 to 20 of them, went virtually flawless for me. If you clone, just do a "sizing" of leave and small differences will be accrued.

  • Can you capture 1 video and another author at the same time?

    To save time with videos that are not critical, can capture a video for Premiere Pro as you create in another video captured previously?

    ... but I * think * captured from a strip camera via Firewire requires that the Organization have development program

    This is no longer the case. It has been possible to capture via firewire using Premiere Pro in the background since the CS5 version.
