Virus definition updates are essentially regular injections of information for your antivirus software, keeping it informed about the latest threats and how to identify them. Think of them like vaccinations for your computer, protecting it from constantly evolving digital diseases.
Here's a breakdown of what they do:
Contain information about known viruses, malware, and other threats: These updates include data like the virus's code, signatures, and behavior patterns.
Help your antivirus software recognize and block new threats: By comparing suspicious files to the updated definitions, your antivirus can quickly identify and quarantine potential dangers before they can harm your system.
Improve the overall effectiveness of your antivirus protection: Regular updates ensure your software stays up-to-date with the latest threats, providing the best possible defense against cyberattacks.
At every mention of using antivirus software there will be arguments against it. is antivirus eally needed, necessary, worth it, does antivirus really work, etc. The answer is yes to all of the above.

It's impressive to see them still supporting the older OS'ses .

Yes! Supermium v115 is a fork of Chrome v115 that runs on Windows XP. There are several others worth trying as well

Please post more videos on windows 7! You rarely post and your videos are short, but the video’s are high quality and very helpful. I still need you and your troubleshooting!

for some reason malwarebytes still updates to the last version on my win7

That's excellent news! The more software that still supports Windows 7 the better, in my opinion. Are there any other programs you noticed still getting updates?

Can you use third party software like file hippo so you can get ms security essentials. And ms security essentials were still supported until 2023-not to far from windows 10

@adventuresinnostalgia 6 ай бұрын

You can. However, the latest version for Windows Vista stopped receiving updates a lot longer ago than 2023

You can upgrade from windows vista to 7, I didn’t really like vista when I was still a kid at the time. I didnt know how to activate it with the product key and my dad said he was always to busy. You can guess what problem’s I would face when trying to use an inactivated windows vista.

Can you make a video of downloading and making the widgets/gadgets work on vista and windows 7 ? Downloaded and tried some but they dont work and the stock ones like the weather widget cant get location ( if they are safe to use and there is no vulnerability that i do not know of)

@adventuresinnostalgia 4 ай бұрын

I like this idea! I'm not that familiar with all of the widgets available. Are there any in particular that you would like me to look into?

@@adventuresinnostalgia not really,there are many widgets like the yahoo widgets,or this website that has many widgets like the windows 7 gadgets site,8GadgetPack although it says to esecute with admin privilages which doesn't sound good,also there are widgets from deviantart which look cool with aero effects and nice 3d icons for the weather . I like the style windows 7 and vista have with the aero theme . I had htc phones with their sense ui on the phones which kinda mimic that vista and 7 look and i see people use these weather icons in the weather gadgets for windows .
