This year when it was time to renew & have had nothing but problems installing on my laptop. You end up in a continual loop & getting no where. You remove the extension that says is already installed but then when you click on the get again add extension then it tells me I have reached the maximum number of installations although on my account it shows that I can still add a device namely my laptop. I have lost count of the number of times I have gone through the exercise but even with so called help from support staff still not getting anywhere. I think it would be best to get a refund & buy another product. Would give a negative rating if possible.

I have never had a trouble with Trend Micro... and those of you that say this doesn't work... if you notice up under the remove button it says "add-on is already installed on your browser"... thank you, Trend Micro!!!
