What's new in VIPRE Advanced Security 11.6.0.22 Beta 2
Jul 8, 2021
- This latest beta release of VIPRE Advanced Security includes a substantial upgrade of our Active Protection allowing for increased protection and performance. We’ve also enhanced product hardening in order to improve service protection, adding registry keys, and file protection.
- Gaming Mode:
- Finally, we’ve added an exciting new feature called Gaming Mode that prevents VIPRE from running any resource-intensive background activity, such as file scans, patch scans, or update operations.
