Panda Security Forum

I think I figured out what went wrong. When I originally downloaded and ran the hotfix, the interface was already open because I was running a scan. After making my above post, I re-ran the hotfix again with the interface closed. This time, it seems to have worked. I'm not seeing the fragmented inte...

The hotfix doesn't work to correct the interface for Panda Free version 18.0. The only workaround I've been able to figure out is to minimize the interface (which isn't easy because the minimize button is hidden by the black shading in the upper right hand section of the interface) and then to maxim...

@GoneToPlaid, Thanks for your post. I actually tried your suggestions already without success. Then, after a bit of Googling, I think I found the answer and I'll share it here in case anyone else goes down the same path I did. In Windows 7 (which is the OS on my desktop), Windows Defender is an anti...

As a result of the issues that I, as well as others, are having with Panda per this thread http://support.pandasecurity.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=83&t=5556 I have uninstalled Panda Free Antivirus from my home-built Windows 7 Pro desktop. Per instructions here http://support.pandasecurity.com/for...

And I've done that. And Data Shield is nowhere to be found. See image.

Any other suggestions, opinions, thoughts???

@TeamProBono, You misinterpreted my post. In no way was it intended to be terse or snottty. You asked a series of 6 questions in your first two posts, and it seemed to me that a could starting point would be to find out if you had reviewed the Help manual. I think a fair number of users are not awar...

The official "Help" manual of Panda Free Antivirus*contains a section on "Data Shield" (on the left side pane, click on "Protections", then click on "Data Shield"). But unless I'm going blind, I don't seem to have that feature. I'm running PCAV version 16.1.0....
