Disable everything with registry or scripts - Bing, telemetry, edge, store, groove music, etc Change to VLC, irfann view, and Firefox. Disable startup programs and delete any antivirus you have

Disabiling apps you don't use and replacing the ones you need with lighter options is good. I would not reccomend deleting or disabling antivirus except for very briefly to troubleshoot if that was the cause of the slowness. I think that could open you up to bigger problems in the future.

    I've been using windows for decades without antivirus software, and have never seen a virus on my system. Protip: Thoroughly vet the providers of any software you use, and do not open spam email.

      True Words!! Antivirus works for already knows viruses and nothing else (and heating up the atmosphere) and makes Computers slow.

      I think Windows Defender does some antivirus work too. Antiviruses themselves seem to do more harm than good now.
