Advice Request Is VoodooShield with Bitdefender TS 2018 redundant?

[Hector1]

You can test cracked game in Sandboxie container with no internet access and limited folder acces (you can set the container ). Then wipe the container

Note: this is only for test purpose and NEVER for playing game without buy it.

Secondly nobody answered me should I switch to EEK cuz my free trial for Hitman.pro is expiring and I don't really want to spend money on a second opinion scanner.

Afaik if you use Hitman pro only as a scanner and never! need it for cleaning (not activating the trial) you can use it forever.
I use it only to find stuff (never happend till now luckily), but if it would find stuff i would treat my pc as compromised, cut internet, reboot and install an backup from an external Hdd.
Tldr Only use it for finding stuff not cleaning> use forever (atleast my experience from 3+ years with the portable version)
I got malwarebytes, EEK or Zam recommended.

Relax man, we're only pointing out a security risk, that's what we do here. Nobody is attacking you nor hating you, we're just giving advice over a potential security issue. What you do from your system and beyond it's up to you. Just be careful

So we don't go further off-topic, let's stick to the question asked: Yes, VoodooShield can be paired with BitDefender Total Security and is not redundant. Nevertheless, aforementioned, expect a general system slowdown on file opening, programs execution, etc. Common issue with anti-executables, and strictly vary upon hardware and software otpimization. You may notice is very soft and no issue, and you may face complications. Best recommendation? Create a restore point, system image, and test it!

What do you mean by that?

You're stacking programs on top of Bitdefender Total Security. It's as if Bitdefender is actually the redundant software on your PC.

but before I buy a game I crack it to see if I would play it because I don't want to give my money, get past 2h playing it and I can't refund it. I don't do risky stuff other than that. I am a bit afraid that this protection will let me down. That's why I am asking..
