WHAT'S NEW

  • Improved PUP detections — We're now even better at identifying PUPs (potentially unwanted programs that often come bundled with other apps), so we've enabled PUP detection by default. To turn this off, just go to Settings > Protection > Core Shields
  • Improved Rescue Disk — We’ve added a portable web browser to our Rescue Disk so you can search the web even when Windows isn’t working
  • Fewer distractions — We no longer show pop-up messages when your antivirus is open
  • Better scan performance — We’ve made a lot of small performance improvements to our security scans
