Keeping Windows Defender up-to-date, Windows Device security like ( Core isolation, Secure Boot, ) Firewall active and using MFA and Two-factor authentication with internet Apps. My Question do you use extra (third party) security features on Windows 10 and what do you miss in Windows 10?

Dark Mode vs Light Mode
So here is a quick survey. What do you think is the best mode for Windows to be in: dark or light? Remember that to such a question, there is no wrong answer. You could say that light mode is the best and be totally correct and another person could say dark mode and also be completely correct. But honestly, if you ask me, I would choose dark mode in a heartbeat, because it is visually appealing and for me at least, Fluent Design looks more fluid in dark mode. In addition, dark mode helps avoid the situation whereby your PC's display is a huge torch, and dark mode is gentle on the eyes. That ⬆ was my opinion. Thank you!
What is your best protection for your computer
This is the logic. Antivirus makers update their software. At that time the makers of virus, malware, spyware also improve their techniques. Like Tom & Jerry. We as ordinary users were among them without knowing who has stepped forward in their competition. The question is: Are you sure that an antivirus can protect your system 100% ??? For that reason, I'm just sharing my tips here: 1) Avoid porn sites (teasing the basic human instinct is a clever way to deploy a virus). 2) Avoid gambling sites. 3) Avoid downloading pirated software. 4) Avoid the site offering lure of gifts. 5) Turn on antivirus automatic update. 6) Only install trusted or widely-known software. 7) Only plug in external storage devices that you know where it come from. At least you can detect the culprit if your system get infected. Where it come from. 8) As much as possible, avoid connecting your computer to public networks. Use tethering to your own smartphone if necessary. 9) etc ..... and so on ..... please sharing your tips. Thank you! The chances of threat to computer system much depend on user. Narrowing its chances is the best protection if we can't block it 100%. That's just my opinion. Please sharing if you have another way.
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!
