I just uninstalled (with some difficulty) McAfee AV that happened to come bundled on my Dell Windows 10 seeing it was spiking the CPU continuously. That's not to say negative toward them but everyone has their own security setup and McAfee at present isn't a fav.

 

@EASTER, I know what you mean with McAfee, I had the same problems with my last laptop. By the way how do you feel with Windows 10?

 

Hi @Antarctica - I guess it's okay once you can filter out the programs or any other nuisances that can pinch it's performance. Typical of course of every Windows, that they stuff just a few too many things which takes a users time to sort out. I use Google to slim it down some. All in all I can adjust to it fine I think.
