If you google you can find many problems with third part AV that has decreased security instead of making the system more secure! Note, an AV (Anti Virus Software) has to hook very deeply into the operating system to work as expected. If you trust Windows 10 as your operating system, you should trust it's AV to protect it! Lately, test has given this AV the best scores. Thanks.In Windows 10 there is a built in AV Windows Defender. The thing for me is to have an AV that I trust and I don't know much about Defender. I have Bitdefender AV and it has been doing its job and not causing a problem. Snikie I don't seem to have a speed problem but I wonder what you are calling Windows AV? Is it Windows Defender? I have Defender Firewall but not Defender AV. They are usually better than the one in Control Panel. The best solution is to find a uninstall tool on the third-party websites, if they have one. Try uninstalling any third part FW or AV, reboot and test again. The same goes for an anti-virus software. Why do you think you think you need a third party firewall? Windows 10 has a FW built-in and it is working just fine.
Q-BitTorrent since I just installed the latest version before this started to happen, but that did not fix anything.Hi! Their app agent would turn off and on at timesĪnd uninstalled my 2nd torrent Client. Comodo to Zone Alarm - Comodo was giving me some problems even before the update. I have checked Task Manager when this occurs, usually when I am torrenting and everything seems to be in the normal range
Can someone please let me know where I should start looking with this problem.Īfter the last update when there is heavier network activity my computer would start to stutter and lag.
