@L0ckJaw You may want to add Secure DNS like Quad9 or Next DNS both are reliable services. Or do you using your VPN 24/7 ?

All other things looks good enough to me

I would set UAC to always notify to prevent UAC bypasses:

Bypassing Windows 10 UAC with mock folders and DLL hijacking

A new technique uses a simplified process of DLL hijacking and mock directories to bypass Windows 10's UAC security feature and run elevated commands without alerting a user.

Have you tried uBlock Origin or AdGuard?
They can do so much more than Adblock Plus.

A little surprised by the choice of Gdata which is nevertheless a rather heavy antivirus (especially on an i3 and 8GB of RAM).

I advise you to put the UAC on Notify all and to use NextDNS

When was the last time you tried G-Data ?
It’s super light now. Especially on SSD.

I had tried it on VM. Gdata on my PC was in 2019, I did not keep it

Ublock is bloated for me, to many unnecessary options.

Aduard has Russian ties ( for me a no go with any things Russia., not only because of the war ,
But also MH17, I live in Malaysia )

Haha no, I received one year free F-secure and the parent controls are really good, so I can manage her internet usage. The parent control from GData basically sucks haha
