[QUOTE="ScandinavianFish, post: 971041, member: 93786"] Make them use an standard user account, install Hard_Configurator (add EXE and TEMP in Whitelist By Path, launch ConfigureDefender and put it on High protection level, you can also set it on Block under Cloud protection level, also enable Block All Inbound Connections in Firewall & Network protection, also use an adblocker like uBlock Origin. An VPN does very little for your privacy, let alone security, 90% of connections and websites on the internet are already encrypted using HTTPS, DNS over TLS or HTTPS over DNS/TLS, and modern trackers doesnt need your IP address to track you, for that they use your browsers digital fingerprint, which if you use Chrome or Firefox, is unique, meaning they can follow you around by just looking at the fingerprint, no cookies, trackers or IP addresses needed, instead use an DNS service, like Cloudfare, Quad9, or NextDNS, the latter two includes malware filtering, not only does using an DNS over your ISP one is not only does it encrypt your DNS queries (which VPN's also does, though it doesnt make your surfing habits invisible to your ISP), it also speeds up browsing speed. Malwarebytes is mediocre, its good at finding unwanted stuff, but not so good at detecting actual malware, and their nagging is on par with Avast, though not as aggressive, its still an good enough tool to run alongside Windows Defender, just make sure to turn off all real time protection and disable Register in Security Center (Disable notifications in it settings to stop it from nagging about disabled real time protection modules) [/QUOTE]
