Great config overall, however I would like to make some notes.

Remove SpyHunter, it has been found to be malicious.

I recommend you download and test malware in a virtual machine created with VirtualBox to avoid infection on your actual system.

Set UAC to default level, unless you know what you're doing by having it off.

Make sure you have at least one clean, full system backup image created with your preferred system imaging application, so that you can restore your system to its exact state, as it was when you created that system image.

Other than that, you're good to go! Thanks for sharing your config with us! :p

Any reason why you install Spyhunter? Because it can remove threats but you need to purchase a license key which isn't practical where MBAM, Hitman Pro, Zemana AM or Herdprotect provide free removal function.

Add Ccleaner and a backup browser just in case.
