No backups?A really bad idea.You can try Macrium Reflect free or Aomei Backupper free.
Enabling smartscreen, and finding some sort of personal and system back solution or method is about all i would add to this config.

I would do data backups, enable Smartscreen, add Zemana for scanning, and have some sort of password manager. Other than that.
Time to install that Anniversary Update.

How do you receive Windows updates? Keeping your OS up to date is an important security task.
Enable Smartscreen and consider some type of system back up

I am actually not sure about if it is enabled or not.. I thought it was just from Microsoft Edge.. lemme check.
I just checked SmartScreen has been enabled all this time, as my Firewall too (I use Kaspersky Firewall). Thanks for being so helpful guys, thanks to you I know things I wouldn't if I hadn't joined here
Oh nvm, I checked updates and it is installing. Thanks for helping.
Thanks for your help. I receive the updates via Windows Update, I am downloading the new version right now.How do you receive Windows updates? Keeping your OS up to date is an important security task.

Thanks, btw, what are Password managers for?I would do data backups, enable Smartscreen, add Zemana for scanning, and have some sort of password manager. Other than that.
Yeh, ads are very obtrusive and most of them lead to damage, thanks for your recommendations!+1 for Firefox.

I am also not fan of SmartScreen. If you have important files make a external backup of them. Others are good for me.

I will try making a backup ASAP. Thanks!

Fine configuration, Kaspersky IS product contains a lot of features that you can explore and test it.
Application Control is one of the useful component but binds of possible consequences if you configure incorrectly.

Well, I just set Maximum app control and just that.. nothing more.
Thanks whoever changed the tag, I am looking possible backup softwares and then choose one to make a backup
