    HI, Im looking for a light weight anti virus for windows 10, which doesnt eat much RAM and should be a lifetime license.

    I dont trust Microsoft security essentials, as it has let many virus to get in in the past.

    And another question, when we install the new anti virus, we have to disable microsoft security essentials, right ?

    Does it have an uninstall button ?

    i use bitdefender, there is no security essentials for windows 10 as its part of windows defender. when you install a new av it disables windows built in one, but does not remove it.

    Im a ISP in my country, so internet is not a problem for me.
    And Im not looking for freeware, as they dont update regularly their engines.

    Looking for a paid one, but lifetime license.

    If what you wrote here is true, you should have essential and much more knowledge regarding work with Computers and their software! What I could see till now is, that you get a lot of problems with all you do and that you unable to solve that! It even looks like that you didn't even have the normal basic knowledge.

    That's not any Offence, just how it looks while reading all your post's, based on normal logic. Sorry for that!!

    IM a Mac user/developer.
    Totally off windows since 2007.
    So, windows feels all new now and windows itself is very very buggy, I find.

    A simple upgrade takes 100 google searches.

    With Apple, its a piece of cake for everything what we do!

    Sorry, you told you're an ISP, means: Internet Service Provider!! As such your knowledge is near ZERO!! The Internet is mainly frequented and used by PC Users and NOT Mac/Apple user's! As ISP you would need to know how to handle the problems with most used software and that simply is Windows and Microsoft software in general! Therefore, what you wrote, isn't any excuse for what to archive/show on this forum!

    All we're asking is to be honest and not trolling around!!

    Regards!
