    Hi Guys,

    Do you think I could possibly use Sandboxie Classic, Malwarebytes Premium and Windows Defender together without any conflict?

    or should I just ditch Windows Defender?

    Thanks :)

    I don't use any of those apps, but Windows Defender seems to be the odd one out here.

    You can use all 3 together. If you ditch Defender does that mean you will only rely on Malwarebytes for protection? Probably something I wouldn't do, you could use both for protection and Sandboxie for whatever purposes you think you need it. Just remember to turn off the option in Malwarebytes that registers it in the Windows Security Center.

    I've been using those three together for years, well, I use Sandboxie-Plus. Never any problems, BUT, heed digmor crusher's advice and turn off that option in Malwarebytes.
    Good luck, Acadia

    malwarebytes is a lot more bad than defender, i would "ditch" (uninstall) this because it has neither nor benefit. use adwcleaner instead.

    A massive thank you to all those who took the time to post ;)

    Just to clarify, I've been using Sandboxie Classic and Malwarebytes together without Windows Defender, but I think I'll go ahead and start using all 3 together now.

    Cheers guys.
