Unsupported apps on Windows
Due to various technical reasons, Safe Surfer for Windows does not support running alongside some apps.
We don't support most VPN apps, as they are generally designed to bypass network filtering. If you choose to disable Windows VPN features during the protection installation, most VPN apps will be completely unable to operate (as intended).
We don't support some antivirus apps (typically free ones), as they could inadvertently hijack your filtering experience. The built-in Windows antivirus is usually better than the following products. We suggest considering a good paid antivirus, such as ESET, and a good web browser blocker extension, such as uBlock Origin.
AVG
Avast
Avira
Norton
McAfee
We don't support any web browsers published by Opera, because they don't support Chromium policies, which is a technology we need to provide the best protection experience. We fully support most other web browsers, such as Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Firefox.
