Over the years Dell has preloaded a lot of software utilities, variously called "Support" or "assistant" or "Help" or similar, meant to be troubleshooters. I am very reluctant to disable my other AV and rely solely on Malwarebytes protection, since it has no proven record as an AV.Īnd if Dell's SupportAssist starts to nag me, I'll deactivate (or uninstall) it. So I'll ignore the advice from Dell SupportAssist and continue to use both, until such time as I get any grief. If the User Account Control pop-up window appears, click Yes to allow the installation of Malwarebytes for Windows. In most cases, downloaded files are saved to the Downloads folder. In the Downloads folder, double-click the MBSetup.exe setup file. Plus Malwarebytes says it is compatible to run with another AV, as it uses a different technology than traditional AVs use. Download the latest version of Malwarebytes for Windows. I've been using Malwarebytes 3 with another AV running on 2 systems for some time now without slowdowns or conflicts. I take both of these as good generic advice that probably does not apply here. I never did activate Dell SupportAssist, but I fired it up just now and sure enough, it lists both AVs as active, and says that "more than one AV can lead to conflicts". It does note that "running more than one AV at the same time can cause your PC to run slowly". I'm not getting any obnoxious alerts, but if I check Security and Maintenance, it does list both Panda and Malwarebytes as installed AVs.
Reinstall malwarebytes 3.0 premium install#
(I didn't install the 3.0.6 because that is currently a preview, not a final release). I now have Malwarebytes Premium 3.0.5 installed on my Dell laptop running Win 10 Pro, with Panda Free AV running also.
