Ten Successful Ways to Keep Windows Secure

Most people only think about computer security after something goes wrong. A virus slows the system. A browser starts acting strange. Files disappear. Passwords get compromised. Then the panic begins, and repairs become expensive.

Ten Successful Ways to Keep Windows Secure is a practical handbook that helps you prevent those problems before they happen. It is written for everyday Windows users who want a safer computer without needing to become cybersecurity experts. The focus is simple: clear habits, reliable tools, and steps you can follow.

This book does not drown you in technical theory. It teaches you how to secure your Windows system using actions that actually reduce risk: keeping your system updated, controlling what runs on your PC, protecting your accounts, and using built-in Windows tools to maintain performance and recover from trouble.
