Do not have a third party AV, but I do have a VPN, airVPN, but was not running at the time. Been using it for years with no issue.
Yes I have this Windows install is very recent, newly built system definitely after 5/320/23. Bios is the newest beta one.
I tend to agree with your point though...
Microsoft’s description of these settings and therefore this article is misleading. The “never notify” option does not turn UAC off. Setting the “EnableLUA” value to 0 does.

This actually works, but I did not rename anything just set the regedit keys to 4.
Finally no more windows defender uselessly slamming my hard drives. I actually got a popup in the notification center telling me to turn defender back on so you know it works. I wish I would have screenshotted it.
Can computers not multitask anymore or what?
I have a 12900k, 16gb RAM, RTX 3080, multiple NVME's, etc.
I'm copying files from one (SATA) platter drive to another. The game and Windows 11 are on an nvme SSD.
FPS drops by 20-40 while copying files in the background. CPU usage is very low, RAM...
