Same here. Save for the updates or software registration, the laptop is off the grid! Some great advice here.

...and following Blackviper’s advice on disabling services up to all networking services.


My music computer is only on line for software registration and updates, including Win 10 updates. Otherwise it is off line via disabling my Ethernet card and my anti-stuff.

Note that I keep my Win 10 up to date because a couple of years ago I had not updated for over a year. When I had to update due to software I ran into a real mess and had to format my C drive and start again.


My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
