Very solid setup

Enabled Microsoft Defender Application Guard

Agreed with @SecurityNightmares, very simple and strong setup. The only thing you could think about is adding AdwCleaner for adware and PUPs

Also consider linking the config with your account:

By Staff - Link your Computer Security Config with your account (& get the PC icon)

Hello everyone, A few months ago, we've added the option to show a computer icon with your posts which links to your Computer Security configuration. This should make it easier for the other members of this community to know what antivirus you're using and how you've tweaked your system...

Hi @Vulcan , nice setup! You may want to consider using a Standard User Account instead of an Administrator account for your day-to-day operations.

How to make Windows 10 more secure by using a standard user account

You can keep your PC more secure by removing administrator privileges from your account but still be able to perform admin tasks on Windows 10. Here's how.

Not needed with that setup
Of course if common sense is used

I recommend NextDNS over Quad9. Gives you more power and allows you to see your DNS queries.

NextDNS

The new firewall for the modern Internet

Hi, SpiderWeb

I have tried NextDNS and their app does not seem to work for me.
