Can I add other free antivirus programs, like Dr.Web, Malwarebytes or HitmanPro to the pre-installed ones (ESET and McAfee) in Hiren's BootCD PE?

I need up-to-date antivirus definitions, and Hiren didn't updated since 2024.

The short answer is that you can. Caution

  • Your computer could run a lot slower if you have more than one running.
  • One may detect the other as a virus (false positive), so you may have to exclude them in each others' list.

For best results, remove the preinstalled ones. If you are unable to remove them, you may be able to disable them, by turning off their features.
