Lol. If I need to go back I’ll just load up the vm back up I make every month or so. i have not had to do it yet but so far I’m fine. I wonder in the next ideation of windows will MS take windows defender off their own install disks, or how ever it’s loaded in? I guess we’ll see.
There used to be a virus checked I used to use where it said in a voice “causion, a virus has been dected. I can’t remember if that was AVG or avast but that was good even on my machine running 512 mb of ram at the time. Tc and be blessed.
