That's ahead of McAfee (98.5%), but well behind most of the top competition. Total AV was a disappointing 15th place with a protection rating of 98.8%. (Image credit: AV Compartatives) ProtectionĪV-Comparatives' July-October 2020 Real-World Protection Test assessed how 17 top antivirus engines performed against the latest threats. That's a small usability issue, especially as the Smart Scan can't be cancelled Bitdefender, Kaspersky and others run simultaneous scans without difficulty. We launched a can't-be-cancelled Smart Scan, then right-clicked drive C: in Explorer and chose 'Scan with Total AV.' The Total AV dashboard popped up, but ignored our C: request and continued with its Smart Scan. The app isn't smart enough to cope if it's already running another scan, though.

Total AV Antivirus Pro has added Explorer integration since our last review, and you can now scan selected files, folders or drives from the Explorer right-click menu. Our 50GB of test data included around 200,000 files, but Total AV claimed to have scanned around 450,000. The scanner's file count looks questionable, too. We found Total AV scanned our 50GB of test files in around 18 minutes, significantly quicker than most for a first run (Kaspersky took 23 minutes initially, Bitdefender 39.) But while some competitors scan only new and changed files on the second run, drastically reducing times (Bitdefender's second run lasted under a minute), Total AV took the same 18 minutes or so each time.

Regular Quick and Full System scans are available on the Malware Protection screen. And even after you sign up, you're protected by a 30-day money-back guarantee. The website offered us one month of use for £1, though, with no requirement to continue, which seems more than fair. Total AV used to offer a 7-day free trial, but that seems to have been dropped. We've summarized what's on offer, but if you're looking for the full picture, it's all on the official Pricing Matrix page. If you're not ready to hand over any cash, Total AV Free Edition has on-demand scanning only (no real-time protection) and basic web filtering for the cost of precisely nothing at all. Bitdefender's excellent Premium Security includes a full VPN and is almost identically priced ($60 year one, $150 afterwards), or you can cover 25 devices with Avira Prime for only $130. But the price jumps again to $59 in year one, and a chunky $150 on the first renewal, $170 afterwards.

Total AV Total Security lifts support to six devices, and throws in an ad blocker and a password manager. If you're looking for an antivirus and VPN from the same provider, Avira Prime has many more features, and is $99 a year (even covering 25 devices only costs $130.) Seems expensive for a suite which doesn't even include a firewall.

Total AV Internet Security adds a Windscribe-powered VPN and looks good value at $39 in year one, but that jumps to $119 on the first renewal, $139 afterward. Bitdefender Antivirus Plus doesn't have the same PC maintenance features, but it's a capable antivirus app, and is $30 in year one, only $60 on renewal. Total AV Antivirus Pro looks cheap at only $29 in year one, but this jumps to $99 on the first renewal. You can sign up for Total AV's Antivirus solutions here.

For example, Android users get the ability to password-protect apps, preventing others from accessing their most confidential data. As usual, the desktop editions have the most features, but other platforms have additional touches of their own. Protection is available for Windows, Mac, iOS and Android. Total AV Antivirus Pro has Avira-based on-demand and real-time detection, anti-phishing, and a range of system optimization tools: cleaning up browser traces, duplicate and junk files, managing startup programs, optimizing boot times and more.
