Question 1

Does this include a firewall? did't see it mentioned.

Accepted Answer

Not a firewall as such,it scans everything i.e. downloads, websites, ect. EVERYTHING.   If there is a threat it will block pending your desicision. Also, pay attention to searches. If there is a red symbol in front of the site, do NOT go there. Green=OK.  Yellow=caution  Red=RUN
The choice is yours. I'd take there advice.

Question 2

can I wait to install after my current subscription expires?

Accepted Answer

That was a question I had too. I had the previous version installed and a month or so before it expired I activated the new key code for the new version and Webroot just added the full 12 months to what was left onto the old subscription. If you are running a different provider now I would just install the new Webroot just before the old expires. Webroot has a toll free number you can use to clarify and questions you have.

Question 3

If I buy the 3 device 1 year. Can I use it for 1 device 3 years, 1 device 2 years another device 1 year etc? Another program I bought previously gave me that option.
Thank you.

Accepted Answer

No.  Once you install it and activate it on one computer, the 1-year countdown begins for the subscription.  You can install it on up to 2 more computers, but the date the subscription expires is based off the date it was installed on that first computer -- i.e. all expire at the same time, one year after that first install/use.

Question 4

I currently have Kaspersky and would like to switch. Do I have to remove Kaspersky before downloading Webroot?

Accepted Answer

I would recommend removal of Kaspersky (or any other security/anti virus software) first, to avoid conflicts, etc. I believe if you were to contact Webroot, they would tell you the same thing, or at least tell you to make sure it is not running when Webroot is.

Question 5

Will this extend a activated 80 days left of Webroot Secure Anywhere?

Accepted Answer

Yes.  This should happen by default in my opinion, it is an option now, but you must select. In essence it niw allows you to select this feature. It works. U can do what i do, buy media version, relicense when old license expires.  Wake up!

Question 6

Is this 2017?

Accepted Answer

Doesn't matter. All you need is the key code. Download the latest install files from their site and then enter the key code. What matters is the version. You can check out the protection the different versions offer at their site. I have this installed on more than 5 computers. It is a dream compared to many others. No problems at all so far. I ran it along with Vipre for awhile... still no problems. Vipre did not want to update to the latest version with Webroot installed so I dropped Vipre.

Question 7

Does the products time have 1 year time start the minute of purchase or can the license be activated for example in 80 days when my current subscription ends?

Accepted Answer

yes you can activated it when yours ends and then it will begin i waited till mine ends on thejan 03 2018 then i will reacativate my new one

Question 8

What are the system requirements?  My tablet only has 1GB of RAM and several other internet protection suites I have looked at require 2GB.

Accepted Answer

Not sure at the moment
 Should be in description requirements listed. I now have Avast IS. For 1 gig memory. Check into Comodo Cloud free Antivirus. One thing what is your OS. And what do you do on it. If just for research and play on YouTube and social media. I would not put nothing heavy on it. Webroot is okay. Light. But research free light cloud versions for I gig memory.

Question 9

Can I use this on a Windows 10 Tablet with 2GB RAM? RCA Cambia tablet.

Accepted Answer

I am using this on my Iphone, Ipad, and Home Desktop pc.  On the Ipad and Iphone you use the webroot browser for safe surfing

Question 10

Does this include Webroot AntiVirus? Plus additional protections? Or just extra functions, and you need to get antivirus separate?

Accepted Answer

Yes it includes Antivirus. Been using this for about 5 years running now and renew every year. Look at Webroot's comparison page on their site for more details on each version. Sometimes I get the "Complete" version if it is on sale but I don't use the extra features that come with that anyway (25GB online storage space deletes cookies for you)
