So looking for some free anti-virus software instead of all the usual subscription for 12 months cobblers. Also-is there a way of getting Microsoft office etc without again a subscription?

I use Bitdefender free version and it's pretty good...I don't use office type software very often but have Libre office free download to open xls files and spreadsheets etc.
Yes it’s a windows (11) laptop. Does that mean then there is already AV incorporated? I haven’t set it up yet (will do over the weekend) but it f that’s the case why do they try and flog you McAfee at every opportunity?

I imagine Mcafee is just one of the bloatware apps you get pre-installed with brand new laptops so I'd just remove it entirely, windows defender will automatically take over, and apart from prompting you to run a scan every so often you won't be bothered by endless popups or subscription prompts or anything like that.
