Ken,
I did forget to ask you about a ( How to ) ( BACK-UP ) plan.

Mike,

As far as Windows Defender, its ok to keep it, you can have 2 or 3 antimalware programs but when it comes to antivirus programs you only need one, more than one is overkill and can actually slow your system down and cause other problems, just use one, keep it updated and run regular scans.


Backups, depending on what you want to do, if its just a few pictures and documents you can just copy and paste them to a usb thumb drive, if your constantly adding to them and want to do regular backups I would suggest getting external hard drive, I am partial to Seagate and they have them at Costco for around $50, it comes with back up software that you can set to do regular backups of what ever folder or folders you want backed up and can also do a complete system backup as well.

Your welcome Mike,

I will keep an eye out for you but remember when our helpers look for logs to work they take the oldest ones first, only fair way to do it.
