As the OP of this thread and having decided on BD Free (instead of Avast's/Kaspersky's Free products) this thread has served its purpose. Thanks...
@Jimmy9190, that sure seems to be the case, but when reading: Bitdefender Quarantine: How to recover a legitimate file from Quarantine, it says...
I recently installed Bitdefender-Free and it's first scan quarantined a safe program file (i.e., a FP). When I attempt to restore that file...
Well, having dismissed Avast/AVG and Kaspersky for reasons discussed above I decided to install BD-Free (as recommended by @Jimmy9190) - it was a...
Thanks again guys (esp. Jimmy for his rundown). Avast/AVG doesn't sound so good to me anymore and because of Putin's horror show I won't even...
Hey guys, thanks for the feedback - although it isn't quite what I expected. So if not Avast, which Free AVs provide reliable all-around...
I'm thinking of installing Avast One Essentials (Avast's free offering), so if any of you are using it (or have used it) I would really appreciate...
Oh ...that's another detail I missed. :blink:
I thought I'd give this a go. It installed quickly and my first impression was that this has a nice user-friendly interface. But one thing is...
Fwiw, I installed and started using Hasleo Backup Free as soon as @mood introduced it to this forum. I have also been a Macrium Reflect Free user...

Thank you. I'll definitely check out WFC.
Thanks, I'll check it out.
Are there any Windows Firewall Interface apps that can intercept and temporarily block an unsigned program from gaining outgoing internet access,...
Webroot SecureAnywhere - that's it (I get it free from the bank). I know it gets little respect around here but it's been the sole security...
Hmm, that's a bummer! But thanks anyway for letting me know.
Where is the 'Change Theme' option in Reflect 8 for Win7 users?
Well, I just created a Ventoy UFD and the way to get that done is not obvious (to me). Furthermore, when I press Cntrl + h it doesn't result in...
Does Ventoy provide the ability to group 'like ISOs' together on the main menu under a user-named category? For example... AntiMalware...
Thanks for the confirmation (and for LMT AntiMalware)! I'll give it a trial run on my laptop for a while - if all goes well I'll gladly buy you a...
Norman, are you confirming that LMT's basic firewall does intercept outbound network requests, requiring the user to allow or deny the connection?
