RvW 6 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 A client of mine had a problem but I was able to solve it myself. I will share this in case someone has the same problem. When his Mac is turned on for several days his ESET Cyber Security disappeared from time to time. He claims he had to download and install it again. However, after digging a little deeper I found the reason why: drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 102 Nov 10 2016 AVG Cleaner.app drwxr-xr-x@ 5 root admin 170 Apr 29 18:54 Intego He had another antivirus (Intego). I asked him to uninstall it. Problem solved. It's never a good idea to have more than one antivirus. This will always cause problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anytime when you have 2 AVs that do scan as real-time then they will cause a conflict or cause problems, you could have a scanner that doesn't scan at real-time to be a backup for your real time anti virus , but both of them running as realtime will just make conflicts and problems. I am glad that you figured it out Edited September 30, 2018 by Rami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
