When it comes to computer protection, there are a lot of solutions to choose from. Major security players usually provide cost-free editions with limited capabilities, while also offering paid advanced protection. However, if you do not want to spend money on antivirus software, you can opt for the Portable ClamWin Free Antivirus to make sure your workstation is secure.

Relying on the well-known ClamAV antivirus engine, Portable ClamWin Free Antivirus provides an open-source tool ready to provide protection against malicious activity. As a bonus, the portable edition does not require installation and can be used on the go, on any removable device, as a quick security solution that is conveniently easy to carry around.

Once you launch the portable executable of the application, the download of the latest virus definitions begins. In fact, ClamWin will automatically keep your virus database updated by downloading the latest virus definitions on a regular basis. You can download the definitions separately and place the new files in the “Database” folder at a later time to make sure you are fully protected.

Focusing on functionality rather than looks, Portable ClamWin Free Antivirus features a simple main window where you can select the locations to scan. Filename patterns can be used to filter files during the analysis. Additional size-related filters and criteria related to archives, attachments and macros in Office documents can be configured for increased accuracy. The computer's memory can also be scanned.

By default, the antivirus also analyzes subdirectories and reports on infected files, allowing you to choose whether they should be sent to quarantine or not. Email alerts can be configured in Portable ClamWin Free Antivirus to make sure you can take the appropriate measures in due time.

Portable ClamWin Free Antivirus provides an open-source and lightweight virus scanner for Windows. While it does not offer a feature set as diverse as that of a professional solution, it ensures reliable protection against various threats due to the robust Clam AV engine. It is a simple solution that features basic protection against the most common threats.
