Avira is SCAM
Windows User
I used Free Avira for years and everything was fine but lately, it just doesn't work. Real-time protection is always disabled and when I click on fix issues it always takes ages and doesn't show anything. I tried to reinstall Avira 4 times over the course of a few months on my new laptop, but no longer. I am going to use Windows Defender now. Any idea why this might be? Can I have a virus that disables Avira? When I try to uninstall it, it says that Avira Antivirus is using it but I cannot uninstall that one either. I deleted all the Avira files from the computer but Avira made sure that it will remain on my laptop forever I guess :D

Avira ignore feature is a mess that doesn't really work. If you are IT developer you should really keep away from it.

Avira is terrible they rob you behind your back using your credit card number to process automated payments leaving your bank account negative. Never again! It’s a scan EFJ
Horrible antivirus

It did not solve the problem. My browser is hacked by ads, and nothing works.
