User reviews
It is a worry that no-one before me as of January 27th 2025 has left a review regarding Scanguard being installed as an Extension on Microsoft Edge. Why it had to be installed specifically on Edge when it was already installed on my computer is interesting in itself, but hopefully it will stop the dam annoying pop up ads that appear asking you to install ScanGuard every time you open Edge and then get insulted by seeing that ScanGuard are quite willing to give up to 80% discount to have you buy the product. Not good Customer Loyalty for those of us that have paid FULL Price. And why is there no easy way of just contacting ScanGuard Direct.
