Frequently asked
questions.
What reaches us most by email, answered the way we answer in support: straight. If your question isn't here, write to us.
The three products
How does Antivirus protect me?
It does on-demand scanning: you point at a folder, it examines it and shows the result right away. It works very well as a second opinion, next to the antivirus you already use.
Do I need to create an account to use it?
To use Antivirus and Cleaner, no: they work without an account and without a connection. To buy a license, yes: the account holds the annual license. Block Freedom needs a license to receive the site list.
Which of the three should I install first?
It depends on the problem. Worried about threats: Antivirus, which shows what is sitting in your downloads folder. Slow computer or no space: Cleaner, which is on the Microsoft Store with seven free days. Memory and space are not threats, and threats are not solved by cleaning memory.
Does Cleaner make my computer faster?
Yes, when your computer is slow: it frees memory right away. The gain shows up most on machines with lots of junk, many programs in the background or forgotten startup items.
Does Block have a password to unblock?
No. There is no password, no off button and no support mode. Once active, the block can't be undone from the app, not by you, not by us. This applies to the Freedom edition.
Can parents or the company adjust the block?
In the Family and Business editions, yes: only the guardian or the IT administrator, authenticated with a second factor and after a waiting period. The child and the employee can't. In Freedom, nobody can. Both editions are coming soon.
Installation and delivery
Where do I download Antivirus?
Delivery is through the Microsoft Store, as an MSIX package signed by Microsoft.
How do updates work?
Through the channel you installed from. The store package is updated by Microsoft itself.
Does it work on Mac or Linux?
Antivirus and Cleaner are for Windows 10 (1809 or later), 64-bit. Block covers Windows, Android, routers with OpenWrt and iPhone (supervised filter).
Does Windows show a warning when installing?
Through the Microsoft Store, the package is signed by Microsoft and Windows installs it with no security warning.
Privacy
Do you send my files to any server?
No. Antivirus opens no connection: the scan, the base and the quarantine stay on your machine. Cleaner doesn't send anything either. The details are on the Privacy page.
Does the site use cookies or trackers?
We use our own anonymous counter for the steps of the purchase, with no cookie and no IP. Measurement cookies and the Meta Pixel only run if you accept; if you don't, the Pixel isn't even downloaded. The account session cookie is created when you sign in. Fonts and icons are served with the site itself.
Does Block see the sites I visit?
No. Block's channel only loads the list of blocked and released sites. The review valve receives only the address you reported, and no product logs personal data.
Help with the program
Antivirus flagged a file I trust. Now what?
Open the item in quarantine and restore it: the restore checks the SHA-256 and puts the file back where it came from. Then send the hash to support with the subject FALSE POSITIVE; if confirmed, the pattern leaves the base.
Can the program make mistakes?
No security software gets everything right. That's why quarantine is reversible: if a legitimate file is isolated, you restore it with one command. The details are in the Terms.
Block blocked a site by mistake.
Report the address through support with the subject BLOCK. The review is human, takes 24 to 72 hours and, if the site is legitimate, it leaves the list for all users. There is no individual release.
I formatted my computer. Does the Block come back?
The block follows the installation. If you reinstall the system or switch devices, just install again and set up with the same typed confirmation. The details are in the Terms.
Price and support
How much does it cost?
The prices are on the pricing page, per product, with currency and period.
Is there a refund?
Yes: withdrawal within seven calendar days from payment, with a full refund, under the Brazilian Consumer Protection Code. With Block Freedom, the money comes back and the block is not undone.
How do I talk to a person?
Write to [email protected]. The reply arrives within two business days, with no robot and no ticket number. What to send along is on the Support page.
