ELI5: If I have an older, yet up-to-date Anti Virus, does it defend me from the same viruses as its 2017 version?

If, for example, I have AVG's 2015 version and its fully updated, does it defend me from the same viruses as the 2017 version of AVG?

I understand the 2017 version might have more FEATURES, but in terms of Virus signatures and "red flag" moves, wouldn't they be the same?

"nvfbc plugin window" preventing Windows 10 shutdown.

So yeah, the title says it all.. When i try to shut down or restart my PC, I get a screen saying a program is preventing shut down. But I don't know what to do to fix it. I found a script on a steam forum about how to disable or enable NVFBC but that doesn't have any effect. Any ideas? Submitted January 19, 2018 at 12:40AM by Wickedld http://ift.tt/2DsOvwR

Can't delete .ttf files.

The files names are, "gtaweap3.ttf" and "sampaux3.ttf". I have tried some other solutions on google and stuff but none of them are working. I've gone into the registry and none of that worked and went into the fonts folder and unticked "Details pane", but none works. When I try deleting the files it says the file is open in system. I got these two fonts from a SAMP addon for GTA that a lot of people use so I don't think it's a virus. Submitted August 10, 2017 at 01:08AM by nevertellalie2017 http://ift.tt/2upEM6Z
