Suggestions on the main improvements

From the setup owner View current setup
Since you have Microsoft Defender enhanced with Defender UI and CyberLock I don't think you also need Malwarebytes running real time.

Thanks for this. I have uninstalled MBAM from my PC and installed it on my IOS device instead as I only have a single device license from way back.
