Hi guys, i have a lenovo computer whith xeon e3 1230v2. I know it not support windows 11 but i install it and run fine. I am worried about MS declarations who say "Not updates" i want to use another security suite diferent to defender. I have emsisoft but it have too many FP in steam games. Do you know about another av whith less fp like Defender?
 
I see the av comparavive you show me, what do you think is better option, avast or kaspersky in free versions?, i do not browse or download files from untrust resources, i only see movies in netflix or prime, i dont play pirate games or use pirate software

In my opinion even free, Kaspersky is the best for protection.

Either one, though most users here will say K is better protection-wise.
 
For free Kaspersky is hard to beat good protection with low false positive, just wondering was the FP possible in Emsisoft malware detect from signatures the main signatures for it is BitDefender which can sometimes be prone to FP or is Emsisoft behaviour blocker flagging the games as suspicious.
 
Windows Defender has been working fine for me in terms of gaming and don't usually deal with many issues. Avast would be my secondary option but I have heard issues pretraining to privacy and there might be more FPs as well.
 
ESET even sacrifices detection rate to achieve low FP rate.
I disagree. I rather have a slightly higher FP than missed malware or ransomware because detection rate was placed secondary. If you want to game and dont use cracks etc then why use a 3rd party AV at all when MD will do?

At this point it seems highly unlikely that MS will stop updates to unsupported Windows 11 installs.

I would take Bitdefender Free , i don't realy trust K (it sends too much data to other countries) .. even a simple speedtest goes in their lab server;)
But yes protection wise its a very good one (maybe i'll give it another try in the future)
