Hello! You're using 3 addons for blocking content. I would recommend for saving resources:
-> Remove Disconnect!
-> Add the Disconnect lists to uBlock Origin:
-> https://s3.amazonaws.com/lists.disconnect.me/simple_ad.txt
-> https://s3.amazonaws.com/lists.disconnect.me/simple_malware.txt
-> https://s3.amazonaws.com/lists.disconnect.me/simple_tracking.txt
-> Change your DNS server to the Adguard DNS Server! If uBlock Origin needs to block fewer then you will save up a little bit ram. DNS servers are not consuming ram. (If you're using the Adguard DNS Server then you doesn't need the Disconnect Filterlists.) Adguard DNS - the free DNS with advanced ad blocking
Good configuration.

I would like to suggest a backup solution for. you Both Macrium Reflect and Aomei Backupper have a free and reliable version. Then you can create backups and system images. ;)

Thanks for sharing your config with us here at MT. :)

I like Macrium Reflect and Rollback. I assume you're using freeware of each? Not neccesary, but Rollback and Drive Cloner are more compatible. It's not dire that you upgrade, moreso for your own ease of use.

Also, no password manager? You should grab one, it never hurts.

Great config otherwise, small nitpicks aside this will keep you protected :)
