Changed backup program from Hasleo backup Free back to Aomei Backupper Pro. Not because Hasleo is a bad piece of software, because it is absolutely not. 
But actually for very simple reasons. One of those reasons is that NPE kept showing me a warning about Hasleo, and since NPE does not allow me to exclude files/programs, it was a bit annoying. Combined with the fact that I just got my PC back a short while ago, and Hasleo had not made that many backups yet, it was in my opinion not so bad to go back to Aomei Backupper Pro.
Everything else of my security setup is still the same.

Why I did not see that before is beyond me, but thankfully it was not a critical mistake.
I forgot to mention WingetUI under maintenance tools, as my software update program.

I made a few changes the past few days.
* I had to remove Cloudflare WARP, and replace it with their regular Cloudflare DNS. (Also very fast.) Before the last update from Cloudflare WARP it was working perfectly, but after the latest update I noticed that more and more programs started to become extremely slow to start... or they froze while starting. (Like MSI Center.) Also some websites refused to work properly at times, or did not allow me to register because I used a VPN? After switching to normal Cloudflare DNS (1.1.1.1 for now.) everything works again as it should.
* I stopped using Aomei Backupper Pro, damn it has become so freaking slow for me. Incremental backups took a freaking 1 and a half hours (Or more in some cases.) to finish a incremental backup of 4 to 10 GB. Hasleo Backup Suite Free does the same thing in 2 to 4 minutes.
* I started using Opera One as my Secondary browser. Well secondary for now at least, because I have to admit that it is growing rapidly on me. So who knows, I might make it my main browser in a few days, and then use Brave as backup. (I have not decided yet. )
Waterfox is still installed, so that is why I left everything Waterfox related in my security setup.

For reasons that take too long to explain here, I had to change my security setup. It was a pain in the but doing that, and let's just say that March 2025 can not come soon enough. (At that time I can return to using SpyNetGirls Hardening guide again.)
So I had to change my setup until I can change things back as mentioned just above, I am back to using BitDefender Total Security. (After testing a few days of what I could use.) After installing BDTS I noticed that I still had everything from WHHLight activated. But in the Thread for WHHLight LennyFox already that since WHHLight allowed BDTS to install, it would likely allow updates to BDTS. And so far it did indeed update.
But do I actually need all 3 modes active or not? Does it add an extra security layer, or is it partially redundant to have all 3 modes active in WHHLight now?
