thanks for sharing your config @Ottoman77 .
About the Password Manager, Bitdefender Password Manager is a seperate product that is not included in Total Security suite. are you using that or Bitdefender Wallet that is incldued in Total Security ? as far as i know Bitdefender Wallet is not working on Edge. i wonder which product you're using since you're using Edge and Brave ( none are supported by Bitdefender Wallet i believe )
 
With smart app control on and Bitdefender you have a decent security setup.

I would endorse @harlan4096 and @Gandalf_The_Grey advice to add some data backup. You may have your important documents backup in the cloud, but what about your photo's and videos?

An easy improvement woukd be using a secure DNS like NextDNS. It is free and also has some nice security and privacy features which are set and forget.
