Computer scans

Computer scans - but to be honest, I do not know what I need to do with the information? Or do I need to do anything?

Thank you for your feedback. Webroot is designed to handle most threats automatically, so in many cases there’s nothing you need to do after a scan. We understand it can be unclear what the results mean, and we appreciate your comments.

Our goal is to provide protection that works quietly in the background while keeping your device safe.

My Heroes!!

I’ve been trusting Webroot for many years and haven’t had any virus attacks, malware, or other issues while under their umbrella. They assisted me once early on and performed what I called a miracle in getting my laptop back up and running without issues again.

I will trust Webroot as long as I have a laptop!

I don't know how to tell if it's working or not. I don't seem to have any viruses and I don't get any messages from Web group telling me that I've been attacked and they have disarmed it. So I don't know how to read it because I doesn't come up in my use.

Thank you for your feedback. We understand how this can be confusing. Webroot is designed to work quietly in the background, so it’s normal not to see frequent alerts—its goal is to stop threats before they affect your device. If everything is running smoothly and you aren’t seeing issues, that’s typically a sign it’s doing its job. We appreciate you sharing your experience.

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear you've found Webroot easy to install and that Webroot PC Optimizer has helped improve your computer's performance. We're sorry to hear you're still receiving Microsoft Defender alerts.

Those notifications may come from Windows security features running alongside Webroot and don't necessarily indicate an active infection. If you'd like help reviewing those alerts, our support team would be happy to assist.

Auto Pay Service

Autopayment is a BIG help. But you need to have someone to change card information if registered card is lost, stolen or hacked. Otherwise, service has been good so far.
