Admin account or standard user account on Windows?
I have not changed my setup very much since Vista, the only recent change is dropping Chrome for Edge-chromium. So there is really no need for me to keep on using my admin account for daily work. Still I am hesitating to to start using a standard account again. Again because in XP-times I have used a standard account for some time. So what is holding me back? Therefore I am interested to know what the considerations, preferences and oprinions are of MT-members regarding admin account versus standard user account,
