Description
To install Total AV on an Apple Mac, users need to follow a series of steps to ensure the antivirus software is properly installed and configured for use. The process begins by downloading the macOS-compatible version of Total AV from the official website or a trusted source.
First, users should download the installation file, which will typically be in the form of a disk image (.dmg) file. Once the file is downloaded, it should be located in the "Downloads" folder or the destination folder specified during the download process. The user can then double-click the .dmg file to mount it and open a new window showing the Total AV application.
Next, to install the software, the user needs to drag the Total AV icon to the "Applications" folder, which is the standard location for macOS applications. After the application is copied to the "Applications" folder, the user can go to the Applications directory and double-click the Total AV icon to launch the software.
Upon the first launch, macOS may display a security prompt asking whether the user is sure they want to open an application downloaded from the internet. The user will need to confirm that they wish to proceed by clicking "Open" in the prompt.
After launching the software, the user will be prompted to sign in with an existing Total AV account or create a new one if they do not have an account. Following the account setup, the software will typically check for updates and prompt the user to install the latest virus definitions and software updates to ensure the antivirus is up-to-date and fully functional.
The user may also need to grant Total AV certain permissions, such as allowing it to scan files or monitor activity in the background for real-time protection. These permissions are crucial to ensuring the software works effectively in protecting the system from malware and other security threats.
Once installation and setup are complete, it is recommended to run an initial system scan to ensure the Mac is fully protected and free from any potential threats.
