accessible free anti virus software (self.Blind)
submitted by enzwificritic
hi r/blind

so i just tested my anti virus windows defender using a virus test file. so this file made it look like a virus in your computer and the anti virus was suppose to detect it. well it didn't. So I started looking. well all of them were not accessible. so can any of you guys suggest a free and accessible anti virus?

thanks.

I'd try Avast, it's accessible on Mac but I'm not sure if it is on Windows.

I know people used to use AVG but that was bought up by Avast.

avast is not accessible at all for windows. couldn't even go pass the install wizard. it was that inaccessible.

there isn't one that exists other than windows defender. Clamwin is out of date, but is open source. That's the only one.
