  • Does DaVinci Resolve 20 conflict with TotalAV Anti-virus

    Posted by Howie Young on December 7, 2025 at 9:20 pm

    Can someone please tell me if there are any conflicts with the free and paid versions of DaVinci Resolve Studio 20 and TotalAV Anti-virus free version?

    I am using a Mac Studio M4 Max chip, with 14-core CPU, 32-core GPU, 36GB Memory, 512GB SSD Storage.

    What are the best practices for using Mac Studios, DaVinci Resolve Studio 20 and anti-virus software?

    Hi,

    Not exactly an answer to your question, but as a long-time Mac user, I just wonder why you need to use an anti-virus on a Mac.

    Maybe downloading pirated software may cause some malware harm, but otherwise, I don’t think there is a need to use anti-virus software on a Mac.
