@TheBlueCreeper512:
In System Backup, You may add Macrium Reflect Free or AOEMI Backupper, both are free and reliable.
In Data BackUp, consider also to run manual backups of important data to external devices, and/or in cloud services.
A PassWord Manager would be welcome also.
Please kindly reflect Your changes editing Your config, and announcing them here, thanks for sharing

Backup and Restore is being depreciated. It might be a good idea to test out other backup solutions in the event they eventually remove the feature altogether.

I used to use the Windows 7 Backup and Restore function on Windows 10 but encountered some problems with it in February. I switched to Macrium Reflect Free and I am liking it. Please see my comments on the matter. I also link to the tutorial I used for Macrium Reflect in that post.

Have you tried Sophos Home Free? My niece's attorney husband uses it on his home laptop, which is also his work laptop in CoronaTime.

Downgraded to macOS Catalina, Big Sur was having some issues with choppy/laggy animations and I didn't like that.

Why is the Firewall disabled?
Do you use FileVault?
I recommend replacing Edge with Brave browser, unless you require the Sync feature to a Windows 10 device.

I don't feel the need to use the firewall honestly. I use FileVault and I much prefer Edge and have switched away from Chrome since day one.
