[QUOTE="Back3, post: 986885, member: 79310"] Most of my friends are newbies. I have installed Configure Defender on their computer. Every 6 months or so, I check their device: make sure Windows Updates are current;use Sumo to check their apps updates; with Process Explorer and Autoruns, check what is running. Use a second opinion scanner to make sure Windows is clean.Check their browsers and Adguard or Ublock Origin. Make a backup of their important stuff including their passwords on an external drive.
