Issue with Sophos Anti-Virus Home Edition Version 9.6.8 on Windows Laptop

Judy Watson

Hello everyone,

I am facing an issue with Sophos Anti-Virus Home Edition Version 9.6.8 on my Windows laptop. The software was working fine until a few days ago when it started causing my laptop to slow down significantly. Even simple tasks like opening a web browser or Microsoft Word take much longer than usual, and the overall performance of the system has become very sluggish.

I have tried disabling the real-time scanning feature and running a full system scan, but the problem persists. I have also tried updating the software to the latest version, but that didn't solve the issue either.

Has anyone else experienced a similar issue with Sophos Anti-Virus Home Edition Version 9.6.8 on Windows? If so, could you please suggest a possible solution to this problem?

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
