I just realized on file explorer you can optimize the folder
You can optimize the folder for general items, pictures and some other things. However what I realized is that when I selected pictures in a massive picture libary it drastically improved the performance on the photo app. But it also cannot be modified on my surface device for some reason, hence I cannot test this out. I also believe this to be the cause of the massive cpu usage on the photo's app. But eh, I'm wondering how many people how significant it is, it think it focuses on background optimization, and not just adjusting it's layout.

What is the best antivirus software out there?
I always wanted to ask this question since I honestly don't know enough about computers. I always wanted to know if I am wasting my money buying McAfee or is the windows updates enough? Is it harmful to have too many antivirus software on your computer. If one computer has it at home does it effect the others that are on the same network?

Your Phone
On one hand I really like this app, BUT! on the other hand I hate it. There are three reasons for this: 1: I cannot delete either messages or photos directly from the app. Why Not? 2: I deleted a couple of message 2 days ago, and they are still showing up in the My Phone app WHY? 3: The conversation list on the You Phone app does not match what is on my Phone Why Not? Moto G6 with Android 9 Your Phone App vs. Your Phone 1.19071.866.0

What's going wrong?
Hi A new site bug (hope it's only for me): When I sign in to my 'Windows Community' account and post a comment in any discussions, and go and leave a comment in another discussion after posting the other comment, I get signed out automatically and it shows me the 'Sign in to comment' button. When I click it, I'm signed in back again automatically. Is this a site bug or a protection feature? If it's a bug, please try to reproduce the error and please fix it. Joe13 B-) 2.0

Windows Defender anti-virus
Hi all - 1st time posting, I think. On my new HP computer - Windows 10 - I confirmed that Windows Defender anti-virus is turned on, and uninstalled McAfee trial that came with the computer, as I've read was advised to prevent a Trojan virus sneaking inbetween the 2 protections. TWO QUESTIONS: (1) Is Windows Defender all that should be required, for a casual-use, at-home pc, or do users get a second anti-virus program to back it up? and (2) My (paid) McAfee subscription ran out on my OLD (now only occasionally used) Windows 10 PC. Is there anyway a virus could get into that computer, and transfer over to my NEW pc, since the devises are apparently synced? TIA!

Windows update cleanup did not clear
I installed the latest cumulative update, etc., but when I went to storage under settings, it stated, 3.81GB of Windows update cleanup. I cleared it but did not gain space. Not the first time. I like to know if this is just my issue or others are having the issue as well. That way, I can easily identify the issue.
