My System Started Working Slow After Installation Of Antivirus?

by Jackfer Thomas Writer

Antivirus programs are not only famous for protecting your device from virus and other infections but it is also known for some negative reasons. Almost half of the antivirus users complain that they are getting slow system issue after the installation of the software. This happens because the scanning process uses a lot of RAM. If the number if files you are scanning is more, the antivirus will use more Ram, it is less then it will use less memory. However, you cannot avoid this performance issue completely but yes definitely you can improve the system performance a little bit by excluding certain files and folders from scan process.

But the question arises what kind of files or folders you should exclude as making any changes in scan setting can lead to security risks. You can exclude some files and applications that are constantly there in your hard drive. But make sure that these files are trusted and safe. There are some kind of files and applications that you can exclude, you can learn about them from AVG technical service agents by giving them a call at AVG Support Number UK.

Exclusion of file is one way to avoid slow system issue apart from this you can try other means as well. You can change when and how often you want to scan your system. That means you can decide the time of the scan and frequency of the scan. So, better to choose a time when you are not using your system or is away from it. The schedule scan can be set from the advanced settings section of your AV. It is recommended that you should scan at lease 2-3 times a week.

If your scan intensity is high or strict then also you will face this performance issue. You can decide on the amount of memory used during the scan process by the AV. From the Advanced setting option of your antivirus program, click on “scan settings” and then look for the check box or drop down menu that allows you to change the intensity to lower setting or low memory usage. This option is not available in every antivirus program. In case you feel helpless and stuck in the middle of these settings then call at McAfee Help Number UK and find the step by step resolution at our place through technical experts.
