also need recommendation for backup solution and restore and snap it as i use now backup and windows restore

i have this

1- O&O DiskImage 11
2- Genie Timeline home 2016
3- RollBack Rx Professional

4- backup4all Professional

also if better not in the list i try to get it


also alternative of Kerish Doctor as if i use it first time it update and fix usb and lose my Genius Wizard Stick

if i find solution to keep usb driver as it and exclude it from kerish i will use kerish
is winutilities pro is good like kerish doctor ( i have 1 yr license not use it yet)

also any recommendation for any additional app

you can ad privacybadger to your browser. switch your search engine to startpage.com or duckduckgo for more privacy. out of the backup solutions use diskimage for your regular backups and rollback rx for system wide backups. winutillities pro is NOT as good as kerish doctor , in fact is mediocre. thanks for sharing your config with us! ;)

About the backup up, I don't know it, i will research it.
In the past I used Aomei, later I switched to Macrium because I found it more useful for me.
You may want try if you like.
There is also a free version. :)
Nice configuration.

There is no SmartScreen technology in W7, I guess since W8+...

Please kindly consider the already mentioned suggestions:

1.- Add a 3rd party backup solution: Macrium Reflect or Aomei Backupper and schedule to weekly.
2.- Why OS Security Updates is disabled?

I will tagged the config as Caution for now, thanks for sharing :)

Enable OS Security updates.At least important security updates to Download but do not install.
You could use HitmanPro as an additional on demand scanner as you are covered with EIS & VS in real time.
Consider a 3rd party system backup solution and backup important data to an external drive also.
Thanks for sharing your config :)

i use them when i need privacy also with VPN when need

as i mention if i use kerish doctor for first time it update usb driver and lose my Genius Wizard Stick which i like to use with wii games on pc

also windows update if i update windows same problem so if anyone know solution or alternative windows update and solve kerish doctor
i will be happy

i can not use windows 8 or 10 for the same reason

i google a lot and ask many till now no solution

I don't think disabling OS updates is a good idea, at least you should manually update time after time.

as mention problem with Genius Wizard Stick
