    I want to try to use BitDefender on my computer for my anti-virus/firewall program. I did note that on the download page, it states that Malwarebytes has to be removed first. Is this true and if so, can I reinstall it after I install BitDefender?

    you might have to whitelist it in Bitdefender

    BitDefender is excellent protection. I've had no trouble since I started using it on my Windows 10 machine. One caveat: it doesn't come with a firewall--at least, not the one that includes Infoguard Security--so I highly recommend you use Windows firewall with it. Windows firewall is good now if you keep Windows Update turned on and thus up to date.

    I also highly recommend the password manager that BitDefender makes (called BitWarden and available free but can be gotten via BitDefender after purchase). It has many desirable features including ability to recover your vault if you lock yourself out (must set up).
