Suggestions:
-Turn ON OS File Reputation(Smartscreen)
-Complement a system backup solution, Both AOMEI Backupper and Macrium Reflect have a free and reliable version :)
-Update Windows 10 to the latest version

Hmmm... Malware attacks happened at 3 months ago, but still no backup software... weird :(

Two things that I think are necessary are to activate Smartscreen, and a backup program, Macrium reflect or AOMEI Backupper.
Thanks for sharing.:)

@John Ross: Your config will remain in Caution until You turn on OS File Reputation (SmartScreen) and add an Image System BackUp solution.

Consider one of the 2 already mentioned solutions: Macrium Reflect or AOMEI Backupper, both free and reliable, also run data backup of important data to external devices.

Also consider to upgrade Your system to W10 FallCreators Update, and ZAM Free and Norton Power Eraser as on demand scanners.

Thanks for sharing Your config :)
