I like it. Do you use native versions of Chrome and Firefox? Also, how's Windows 10 treating you?

Looks fine to me, do you use a third party for backups or Windows default.

Thanks fr sharing.

Very nice, well-rounded config!

Update 6/1/2016
Added:Windows Backup

It's great you chose to use the built-in Windows Backup!
Make sure you have at least one clean, full system backup image created with Windows Backup so that you can restore your system to its exact state, as it was when you created that image backup.

That's it, there's nothing more to add.
You're good to go!

Thanks for sharing your config with us!

Nothing really to add apart from:

You download malware samples and also have Timefreeze. Its more recommended to go VM route as opposed to rely on Timefreeze, despite you having backups of your system.

In the long run will save you time.

On a side note, I would rather recommend Rollback over Timefreeze or even SD. But I still am the traditional kind of user, backups are stored in separate drives and includes system images + incremental backups. However pictures etc are always backed up anyway (as a safe measure), outside my normal backups. So in the case of reinstalling windows, all I need is to reinstall it, copy stuff across and install games+the minimal software apps i use.

Loading a system image for me takes less than 30 mins.

With eek be careful with some tools such has blitz. Can mess up ur system if you don't know what you are doing. Eek is a collection of tools. If you just use the scanner then you will be fine
