It's windows 11. I'm not sure what happened but there is no windows 11 option in the dropdown menu

Why you use Windows Firewall while Avast Free has a better firewall?It's windows 11. I'm not sure what happened but there is no windows 11 option in the dropdown menu

I don't want to micromanage the security and antivirus settings in gpedit, so I installed OSA 1.4.3 and I will keep Avast.
Also I installed WFC and because I use Updatehub and quickinstaller I can disable more rules

I made a couple of changes from scratch.
Kaspersky Free + OSA (maximum protection)
Standard User Account
I install apps from Microsoft store if I can.
Microsoft Edge again

I tried to organize my emails and recovery options.
All phone recovery options have been removed everywhere (I use codes or backup email)
Backup email: Outlook is better than gmail because it has alias with the login option disabled
Deleted unused Emails (remained 3, 1 google and 1 outlook + 1 outlook for backup only)
Work in progress
I have encrypted backups (both online and offline), but I’m not a fan of the setup since they use the same password as my password manager. It makes sense because everything in it is plain text. The backups are encrypted with BitLocker or VeraCrypt, but I’m still not completely comfortable with this method.
Maybe I should use a keyfile or something like that.

Temporarily, I've switched back to using my Admin account.
I’m migrating from Google Drive to Proton Drive. Initially, I faced some issues and inconveniences, and I realized that Proton Drive isn't as suitable for storing photos as Google Photos is.
So, I’ll continue using Google Photos exclusively for storing photos.
Free plan Nordlocker and Mega is for storing password backup only.
I'm still working on my backups.
Using PIM sounds like a practical choice. PIM can add an extra layer of protection without the added risk of losing or corrupting a keyfile and I don't need another password to remember.
