  ExpressVPN & Total AV

  What is the difference between these two Apps. Kim has recommended both of them, yet they do not work together. Which should I keep.

  Hello Dawn T,

  How are they not working together? The only issue I have come across is trying to use Express VPN with Total AV’s VPN at the same time.

  Express VPN is connected. When I connect Total AV, it disconnects Express VPN.

  Thanks John, I’m very old and new to this need for protection. I thought that they ran silently in the background and kept me out of trouble. How do you “use” them?

  Hello Dawn,

  Total AV is mainly an Antivirus / Anti Malware software that also happens to include a VPN for safe browsing.
  Express VPN is only a VPN for safe browsing.

  While using Total AV you do not want to enable the VPN while using Express VPN, one will turn the other off.

  Thank you John. Wouldn’t I be better off with just Total AV? I should have antivirus protection and I don’t get that with Express VPN

  Hello Dawn,

  I have never personally used Total AV’s VPN. If it suits your needs, then you only need the one.
