Virus protection
I had been hacked in the past; Xfinity provided Norton anti virus but, it discontinued that service. I wanted to use Windows Defender and Antivirus but without success, as I got a message saying "your organization provides antivirus". Is there a means to let Windows know that is no longer true, and get the anti virus protection?
Can no longer write to files in my home Documents
My files in my home Document are no longer writable. I've suspected Dropbox, Bitdefender and Windows Account, but am unable to fix. If I try to write to a file in \Users\me\Documents it says: You'll need to provide administrator permission ... So if I chose 'Continue', it says You need permission to perform this action. You require permission from me-DESKTOP\me to make changes I am logged in to me-DESKTOP as me. I am the Administrator and only user on this box and for years all has been fine, until recently. Another interesting find is that I seem to only have this problem with a compressed folder. I cannot Uncompress it either, 'An error occurred applying attributes to the file: Access is denied". When I open Properties, Security, Advanced I can see that the Owner is me (me-DESKTOP\me) and if I click on the 'Change' button NOTHING happens except the Change button becomes grayed out. If I do the same steps in SAFE mode, I can actually change ownership to me, but when I boot back to regular mode the problem returns. I've disabled my anti virus, uninstalled dropbox but continue to have the issue. I've found that if I copy the files to a new location they become writable. I also have another weird issue where I am regularly being advised by Windows that my Windows Account needs to be updated and opens a dialog asking me to login with an old email address that I no longer have. I have gotten a reset code (on an alternate email address) and updated my account to use a new email address but when I get the notification that my windows account needs to be updated I just repeat - as in, just read this paragraph over and over and over.
Pci express screen flickering or black screens on monitors
I HAVE FOUND THE REASON SCREEN FLICKERING WITH PCI EXPRESS DISPLAY CARDS. WINDOWS 7 TO 10 ARE NON RESPONSIVE WHEN NEW HARDWARE IS BEEN ADDED OR REMOVED. YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY ADD OR REMOVE DRIVERS THAT IS WHY WITH TWO OR MORE DISPLAY PORTS ONBOARD/PCI EXPRESS WINDOWS BECOMMING CONFUSED WITH PORTS AND MONITOR DRIVERS AND BECOMING A MESS TO CHANGE BETWEEN PORTS OR MONITORS XP AND NT HANDLED DRIVERS VERY WELL. FROM WINDOWS 2000 UPWARDS WINDOWS COMPLETELY LOST CONTROLE OVER DRIVERS. Why don't windows fix that or why did windows gone bad instead of going better

Photos app being ridiculously slow
The title speaks for itself, but how do i determine it is so slow? Well, any other program and even other windows apps open any image withing less than blink of an eye. For example, Paint, Paint 3D, Windows Photo Viewer or Photoshop open any images instantly. Does anyone else have that problem? I would like to continue using Photos app for one reason only - it has full dark interface. This issue came to be either with last update or the one before that.

MEI x 64 Device Not Started
I am running Windows 10 Pro 64 bit operating system on an ASUS H81M-Plus board and Intel Core i5 -4440 CPU and 8.00 GB installed memory.In Device Manager under heading ‘Intel Management Engine Interface’ I get the message Device not started (MEI x64) after Windows Update. Device had a problem starting. Question: Is this affecting my PC’s performance and is it the reason I get under ‘Windows Update’ the message : Your device is missing important security updates.

Answer to my wi-fi dropout did not address the issue.
Got the following reply. Windows Community2 months ago 'Hello Tony - We are sorry to hear you are having issues with your Wi-Fi connection. Please see this article on how to troubleshoot your network: https://community.windows.com/en-us/stories/quick-ways-to-fix-common-wi-fi-connection-issues. Go you your manufacturer's support site and download the most current Wi-Fi driver or update it manually: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/update-drivers-in-windows-10-ec62f46c-ff14-c91d-eead-d7126dc1f7b6'. My issue is intermittent and the link does not address this. The wi-fi signal is normally strong and when I get a dropout Windows 10 points to router failure. When I check the router with another pc, at the same location as my laptop,the wi-fi is ok but my laptop is not. I have the latest wi-fi adapter drivers. I'm convinced that it's not the router but an intermiient error with laptop hardware or software. But which is it and how can I fix it.
