My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

running both win Defender & Avast ...OK???

11 years ago

Just wondering, my system is running both Avast and windows defender at the same time .. is this OK ?? Or should I shut down Win Defender .. some say running both may slow my machine down ... true or false ? Thanks.

    When I installed Avast on my computers, it automatically disabled Windows Defender. So if this is a true statement, I don't know how you managed it unless you intentionally re-enabled it after the fact. My choice would be to not run Defender and Avast at the same time...but that's just me.

    One or the other will run at the same time but not both.
