Title: A). Install and configure antivirus software on
system.
Steps to install antivirus software on system:
There are two ways antivirus software will be delivered to you:
1. You will be getting a package of CD, product key and instruction manual
2. Or you will get the product key and instruction manual online and a link to download the
antivirus software
Both works fine when it comes to install any antivirus in your computer system. Either you can
copy the antivirus setup folder from CD or can download it from the link provided by the
antivirus company.
Before installing antivirus software, you should check the following things:
1. Make sure that no other virus protection solutions are installed

2. The automatic protection functions of various security solutions may interfere with each
other
3. You should have an established internet connection
Now it’s time to get into the steps which needs to be followed while installing antivirus software:
1. Install by running the setup with “antivirusname.exe” installation file by double

clicking over it.
2. After that a pop screen will appear and ask for user account authorization, you need
to click on “Yes” which will take you to Antivirus setup screen.
3. Click “Next” and the installation Wizard will then guide you through the rest of the
installation process.
4. Thereafter, a license agreement screen will appear where you will be asked to read
about the minimum system requirements and then confirm that you to agree to the end-
user license conditions.
5. To continue, the user needs to select “I accept the agreement” which will activate
the “Next” button for further steps.
6. Then the user needs to click on “Next” to reach destination selection window.
7. In the destination selection window, you will be asked to confirm the destination
directory where the antivirus is going to get installed. The setup is designed in such a
way that it selects the destination automatically or will create the same if doesn’t exist. It
is recommended that you should accept the default destination directory and only need to
click on “Next” to continue.
8. It will take you to the “Select Start Menu folder” Window to place the program’s
shortcuts. By default, it will store in the “Antivirus Name” folder, otherwise you
can browse a different location. Click on “Next” to continue.
9. Now the user needs to select a server as Primary Update Definitions Server from a drop
down list. We recommend that you should accept the default selected server and click
on “Next” to continue.
10. Now the setup is ready to install the antivirus software. You need to click on “Install”
to start the installation process.
11. Thereafter, you will see installation progress in the form of green progression bar.
After the green bar is completed, the installation progress is successfully completed
and ensures you with the “Finish” setup wizard.
12. As you click on “Finish” to complete the process, the installation part is completed. Now
it’s time to register the antivirus product as it will be showing as demo installation having
an expiry period of 30 days (the day might differ).
13. To register the antivirus product, you need to click on license and fill out necessary
details like first name, last name, company (if any), phone number (optional), email
address, country.
14. There after you need to enter the product serial key which you have got either in the box
delivered to you or got it from online portal.
15. After entering the serial key, you just need to click on OK and message will be displayed
“Your products has been registered”
There is also another process for installing antivirus software:
There are a few ways but before you install antivirus, the source of file matters.
For example, if you downloaded the setup through internet then there will be just one file to run
and rest is self explanatory for even an average user.
But if you bought a CD/DVD of the antivirus then there might be more than one file, one of them
being the “setup” file to run.
Either way you just need to run it, in case of CD/DVD source then I will recommend you to copy
the whole content of that CD/DVD to a new folder on desktop. It will faster if there are multiple
files on CD/DVD.
The steps to install an antivirus are:
1. Run the setup or setup file.

2. Follow installation process
3. Insert/ Type the activation key (if you have it) when asked or continue as trial option.
4. Reboot upon installation completion.
B). Setup Operating System Updates:
Windows 10 offers you the choice of when and how to get the latest updates to keep
your device running smoothly and securely. If you're not ready to get recommended
updates, you can choose to temporarily pause them from being downloaded and
installed. In Windows 10, version 1903 (or later), Windows 10 Pro, version 1809, or
Windows 10 Enterprise, version 1809:
1. Select Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update .
2. Select either Pause updates for 7 days or advanced options.
3. Then, in the Pause updates section, select the drop-down menu and specify a date for
updates to resume.
Note: After the pause limit is reached, you'll need to install the latest updates
before you can pause updates again.
Your device will need to restart to finish installing updates. If you're asked to restart
your device while you're busy using it, you can schedule the restart for a more
convenient time:
1. Select Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update .
2. Select Schedule the restart and choose a time that's convenient for you. Note: You
can set active hours to make sure your device only restarts for updates when you're
not using your PC.
