Set UAC to max... Avast VPN? :unsure:

Stay with FF if You want, still a great browser... It seems like the new Edge Chromium is in fashion now ... sorry but I don't want to contribute to making it the new monopoly :rolleyes::p

UAC to maximum "always notify"
replace Firefox with new Edge
add NextDNS as system DNS provider
MS Edge chromium still not good enough because sometimes i lose the session and can't even restore it as I have like 900 tabs opened!

I usually stick to UAC on default settings and not max. There is a reason why MS ships with default settings. Doesnt hurt but for me is unnecessary headaches.

As for Avast SecureLine, there are way better options out there, such as NordVPN and ExpressVPN

I never get a session crash but i don't use that number of non-hand able tabs :D
Can you make a screenshot ?
screenshot of what?

because too much user's are whining with UAC from Vista. Windows defaults are also less annoying but that doesn't mean it's the best.


Of your browser with that number of tabs

Kaspersky Resource Center recommends to keep UAC enabled.

What I do: when using a security suite, I keep the UAC settings at max; if I add a tool like Voodooshield, Comodo Firewall or SpyShelter to my security, I set it at default. I use F-Secure Safe+ SpyShelter Premium+UAC at default.
