Looks like a beautiful light config... One question, when you say Reformatting, are you talking about using built in recovery or do you have external back ups of the system to reformat with? If you are referring to only having the built in recovery i highly recommend the latter of externally backing up the system. Other then this, your config looks great.

Well to save time and effort better to have a snapshot of system, you will realize how time it can save for such process and you can do more productive works.

Other than that its pretty fine though.

I am referring to the built in recovery. I will look into external backups though since it is the one thing I'm truly lacking. Do you know any good automatic backup software that is preferably free and as simple to use as possible. I dislike needlessly complicated software. Thank you for your suggestion.

You can use windows built in recovery to create a recovery disk.
To create a Recovery Disk:
1. Right click start button
2. Chose Control Panel
3. Under System and Security chose "Back up and Restore"
4. Under Control Panel Home select "Create a system image"
5. Chose on one or more DVD's...

Or you can use a application like Macrium Reflect Free...
Macrium Reflect Free

Hello, it is a very good configuration, just add a second browser and PrivaZer, which can protect your privacy
You can also add Collusion extension for your browser, which can allows you to know which sites are tracking you. Thanks for sharing

Do you use default Windows Defender settings such as, Cloud-based protection and Sample submission?

There's nothing to indicate that Lightbeam blocks anything, so using Ghostery to block them immediately is better?
Lightbeam for Firefox

Thank you for the suggestion of a second browser. I will look into Lightbeam/collusion for Firefox. Thanks for all the suggestions.

Disconnect has the light beam look on it but blocks all trackers by default if you're interested.

Other than that very nice security config!
