Wait for it...wait for it....I used McAfee and K together for over a week and had no blue screens, no crashes and no slowdowns. The 2 Avs were dating and kissing all the time and at no time did they fight each other even when they detected a maiden.
Please re-phrase that - I don't understand what you are saying.
I have very few family photos, as long as they are OK, I won't miss my family. My dad has recently passed away, but I still see him clearly in my mind - always 40 yrs old it seems. Music collection is nowadays replaced by Spotify - $11/month, VAST library of different genre's and era's', unlimited playback, bookmarks of favorite songs. As for taxes, as long as you don't owe the taxman any dollars they won't bother you.
i.e. cutting costs?
I believe @cartaphilus was joking. His wife DODGE'd, meaning cut, the household budget.i.e. cutting costs?

Which is a bit of an oxymoron, Government and efficiency?
But we're off topic and heading into forum restrictions. 
Gasp: You are dicing with the unknown & you could create a time paradox, the result of which could cause a chain reaction that would unravel the very fabric of the space-time continuum and destroy the entire universe! Granted, that's worst-case scenario. The destruction might in fact be very localized, limited to merely our own galaxy - so beware?I used McAfee and K together for over a week and had no blue screens, no crashes and no slowdowns.

Yes but everyone isn't you, many have thousands of family photos, don't use Spotify and have thousands of documents including tax returns.My questions still stands, how can you put a price on these?
It's past midnight and you are alive again
No I can't put a price on something that I don't know. The formula still stands, if you put something as 'pricelessly important', then you do your utmost to protect it. But many things have a value to which a price can be affixed. And in an extremely capitalist way of thinking, anything that cannot earn money is useless, as are your family photos. You will mourn the loss of them in a house fire, but it doesn't deprive you of earning a profit/income, and life goes on. ( just to be argumentative, of course there are things that I care about. 
basically you buy license from kinguin , g2a, eneba/ whatever site you want from for cheap. Then enter license, you can stack them too but never ever connect any billing details to account youre using. But i get your point about auto renews, wich are awful thing to exist
I am not interested one jot what anyone feels I should spend on protecting my data, I have many thousands of photographs (923 GIG) that are without doubt my most precious possession, videos of my four children growing up & much more - I have ripped HQ music that is not on any music streamer & never will be, therefore I back up on 5 external drives - That's my way & will remain so, I have another drive will most on not at my addressEstablish a budget for security protection: probably via the criticality and confidentiality of your data. If protection costs exceed value of your data, then don't spend more money on it. Consider all the forms of value though, the time it took to develop the data (hourly pay rate * number of days), the worth of your data to competitors, the reputation loss you would incur if your lose the data (future loss of income), the inconvenience to daily operations if you lose the data. And I must have omitted some.
This line of thinking encourages you to think as a business, and so you should. Everything in life has a cost or value. You have to justify your spending, in numbers.
I haven't had anything to exclude yet, am I doing something wrong?
No you're fine. I just use some apps which some antiviruses classify as PUPs and quarantine, as well as large collection of installers for apps, some of which are PUPs. If you're using not using any software that McAfee quarantines, but you want to restore it and keep using it, this won't be an issue. Some antiviruses, give you the option to add exclusions for files when you restore them from quarantine, so they don't get automatically quarantined again.I haven't had anything to exclude yet, am I doing something wrong?
Jokes aside, it is not recommended and just makes no common sense to run 2 AV's at the same time. Just stick to one, and augment with the likes of Smart App Control (SAC), or Windows Hybrid Hardening (WHH).I used McAfee and K together for over a week and had no blue screens, no crashes and no slowdowns. The 2 Avs were dating and kissing all the time and at no time did they fight each other even when they detected a maiden.
They've largely phased out AntiVirus Plus in favor of Total Protection and, of course, heavy promotion of the identity protection packages. Different regions might vary, though, and when you're shopping for licenses you're likely still to see some of the old product names.
Yes, it's true, it makes no sense. I installed McAfee alongside K just out of curiosity, just to see the circus catch fire, literally speaking. Since I've never seen a blue screen on Windows 11 or crashes, I wanted to see what would happen with two AVs together. Although the two AVs worked together without any problems for over a week, it could still compromise security and end up nullifying protection sooner or later. Now I've gone back to McAfee and Kaspersky and installed them on my laptop. I don't recommend anyone do this, installing two AVs at the same time. This is a forum dedicated to security, so it would be a bit ironic for me to give this kind of advice, so I don't recommend doing it.
