That's not completely true. You should have a decent AV in both your physical machine and also in your virtual machine. There are many kinds of threats that can get in even if you are really careful and only visit "respectable" sites.codec_spurt wrote: ↑Sat Feb 15, 2020 6:40 pm
By using a Virtual machine and/or sandboxing you won't even really need to use an anti-virus as well which will slow your machine down.
Of course, with VM you can mitigate some of that by always resetting your machine to a previous checkpoint. But if you are using your VM as you would use your regular computer over long time, then decent AV is a must.
