antivirus uninstallation takin so much time aah
Jidat
Jidat2y ago
Itsme56
Itsme56OP2y ago
question - does antivirus ininstallation always take this long for everyone? or is my pc just bullcrap
Jidat
Jidat2y ago
Prob ur pc
Itsme56
Itsme56OP2y ago
another question - is it NECESSARY to completely uninstall antivirus, like why cant I just turn it off through the app
Jidat
Jidat2y ago
Cuz u don't need it Just takes up resources for no reason Windows defender is enough on its own Most of the time
Itsme56
Itsme56OP2y ago
will it matter for valorant tho? Asking coz uninstallation is stuck at 47 percent from 20 mins
