I like his opinion. Get Revo Uninstaller.

but if you really must use IOBit add it as an exclusion.

I got rid of anything with "Iobit" years ago.

Yep.

thanks for reminding me about Revo, I only have Driver Booster and Uninstall from iobit; both of which are Pro. I also have geek uninstaller. Not so long back there was a 'war' between MWB and Iobit. MWB accused them of stealing their database and passing it off as theirs. I spoke to MWB and iobit about this I was told the 'war' was over. But having reinstalled MWB Pro, the real time protection auto blocks anything from Iobit. I now have an M2 Samsung C drive and am removing 3rd party stuff to a 1TB secondary SSD. So I had to untick Realtime protection to allow me to reinstall Drive Booster, then put it back on.

Also, I have changed Potential Threat settings to 'warn user'

When I took my pc in for drive upgrade to M2 they found a malware which had been drastically slowing my pc down (up to 2.33 min boot). They had installed malwarebytes for which I already have a Prem subscription, and it killed it BUT I found out tonight that MWB seems to be still at war with iobit over stolen data. The only iobit software I have, and licensed, is iobit unistaller, and MWB killed it. So they are obviously still at war, despite assurances from Iobit that they are not. Luckily I have geek.exe which is better methinks that iobit, but free. Should I bit the bullet and del iobit, or compalin to MWB that their software, at least, still recognises iobit as public enemy no 1.

I edited my post. Also to include the fixes. So, not quite as sarcastic as before.
