I hope this post finds you well. Recently, I've noticed a slowdown in my system's performance, and I suspect it might be related to my Webroot antivirus software. I'm reaching out to the community to see if anyone else has experienced similar issues and if there are any known solutions.

Here are a few details about my setup:

  • Operating System: [Your OS]
  • Webroot Product and Version: [e.g., Webroot SecureAnywhere 2024]
  • Other Security Software Installed: [If applicable]
  • Any Recent System Changes: [e.g., recent updates or installations]

The slowdowns occur during [specific activities], and I've already tried [list any troubleshooting steps you've taken].

If anyone has encountered similar issues or has suggestions on how to improve system performance, I would greatly appreciate your insights. Additionally, if there are any known compatibility issues or updates that could address this, please let me know.

Thank you in advance for your help, and I look forward to hearing from the knowledgeable members of the Webroot community.

Best regards,

Michael Jordy

Hello @Michaeljordan56 

 

Your not making much sense?

 

Here are a few details about my setup:

  • Operating System: [Your OS]
  • Webroot Product and Version: [e.g., Webroot SecureAnywhere 2024]
  • Other Security Software Installed: [If applicable]
  • Any Recent System Changes: [e.g., recent updates or installations]

What is your OS? Do you have any other Security Software installed?

 

If you system is running slow you can try a clean reinstall!

 

Please follow the steps closely!

  • Make sure you have a copy of your 20 Character Alphanumeric Keycode! Example: SA69-AAAA-A783-DE78-XXXX
  • KEEP the computer online for Uninstall and Reinstall to make sure it works correctly
  • Download a Copy Here (Best Buy Geek Squad Subscription PC users click HERE) Let us know if it is the Mac version you need
  • Uninstall WSA and Reboot
  • Go into Safe Mode and Delete these Folders if they are there!
  • C:\Program Files\Webroot Folder
  • C:\ProgramData\WRData Folder (Hidden Folder)
  • C:\ProgramData\WRCore Folder (Hidden Folder)
  • Boot back into normal mode
  • Install with the new installer, enter your Keycode
  • Let it finish it's install scan
  • Reboot once again
  • DO NOT import any old settings as you can set it up as you like once it's done
