Selected Answer: E
Having two antivirus programs running at the same time can cause performance issues, especially if both programs are running real-time protection. The technician should remove the user-installed antivirus software program and let the default antivirus program do its job. The reason I don't say A is the correct answer because it says "and install a different one", it's just leading to the same problem so E. is the best answer.

Any sane person would choose E, B might come in a later step if E didn't fix the issue, I would't blame you those questions are poorly written it causes a decent human to lose his brain cells.
