Not sure there’s substance in this theory I have but
I have now disabled my antivirus doing anything scheduled, so for example it only gets to do a scan/update when I choose to go do it, was previously set to run once a day, or on start up if missed
Also, Backup, taken this off scheduled too. but this only ran once a week anyway
Im gonna trust myself to remember to regularly run a scan and to back up
so far my pc is a little snappier especially on start up, and I have a suspicion that these little unexplained things can be caused by antivirus blocking access to files while it scans.
Just a hunch of mine there is no serious theory behind this, but gonna see how i go for the next few months.
Till now never had problems with my antivirus, but of late been noticing poor performance, and noticed the scan allways seemed to be running. I dont want to have a non online pc, this isn’t practical for me
