![]() We found the Interface of Trend Micro 2020 to be quite appealing with its futuristic and minimalistic style. Once the installation has come to an end, a Trend Micro icon gets added to the system tray and then you can get started. We took no issue with this because there ’ s a big enough number of programs out there that have all kinds of added apps bundled with their installers and it isn ’ t so bad that Trend Micro leaves the installation of the browser add-ons to the user ’ s own discretion. Instead, you are prompted to go to the Chrome Web Store and manually install them from there. This is not surprising considering many antivirus programs are incompatible with products of their competitors but it can still be a bit annoying having to first go through the uninstallation process of some other app before you can get Trend Micro going.Īnother thing that may annoy some users is that the browser extensions provided by Trend Micro that come with the Antivirus + Security package don ’ t get installed automatically to Chrome. For instance, it won ’ t allow you to complete the installation if you have the Secure Connection VPN tool by Kaspersky. One thing we noticed here, however, is that the program is quite sensitive in terms of software it is incompatible with. To try out the trial version, no credit or debit card numbers are required, and providing your email address is optional. What we liked here is that you can first go for a 30-day trial to see if you like the program and only then decide if you ’ d purchase it. The installation of Trend Micro Antivirus happens quickly and with minimal need for user interaction.
