How to juggle several protection programs and use Windows Defender
I have Malwarebytes, CCleaner, Adwcleaner, CryptoPrevent, and Windows Firewall active on my portable PC (with Windows 10, fully updated.) Recently had Free Avast, but it was using too much CPU, so I deleted it. I'd like to use Windows Defender as my AV, but it won't turn on as it says I've got another AV working. So, this leads me to several questions:
1. Should try to get Avast to work at a lower CPU and forget about WD?
2. If I were to use WD how can it be made active while keeping the other four noted above...if possible?
3. Aside from my thoughts in 1 and 2, I'm open to any suggestions on how to juggle these programs so that I maintain reasonable security/protection.
Thanks.
