Help Needed again... Just an update from 7yrs ago,since I asked for Help...

Hi, over 7 years ago now.I reached out to your forum for help with my badly infected pc. I have been forever grateful for the advice and names of
the programs you gave me to help mantain good running of my pc/laptops etc…
I was totally brand new then, having no idea how to use, let alone stay safe and protected online.
In any case I have continued to stand by you Avast as the best anti virus protection.
What has brought me back here today, is I have managed to keep my whole families pc/laptops up and running this whole time.
So I have now given some though into learning the rest required to possibly work on friends and other peoples pc, etc…
I was hoping one off you can make the time to just help me with refresh crash course, and help me out with where I amgoing wrong with not being able to pick up all the possible speed i had had previously in the past.
Thanks guys, you have no idea the help you have given me, and allowed me to keep the kids, etc. from melting down their pc/laptops etc. over these last 7 years.

https://www.howtogeek.com/125923/7-ways-to-free-up-hard-disk-space-on-windows/

I am not sure on all of the programs you have listed.
I would like you to tell me, if you could review what I have been using.
I have used malwarebytes religiously for years.
I use avast of course, ccleaner, I had used your firewall suggest in the past.
command pro frewall, until I asked geek buddy for help. And They wanted payment of $180- approx.
So I followed what they had pointed out was the issue. Stating I needed to buy their program to fix my pc.
So I uninstalled the firewall, only to be offer the same program for $20.
I was using zonealarm, but currently not any in place other than windows deffender.
I was hope someone on the form, could customise my laptop a little in depth??
Or even suggest the programs you guys had sent me links touse, etc…
Thank you in Advance. kk
