Simple: Thank you for putting out Windows Repair Free. It works - PERIOD! :-)
Boggin:
When restore points aren't successful in normal mode, then try them in Safe Mode as a 3rd party antivirus can baulk that and in that mode, all 3rd party programs are isolated.
The 28 days only related to the initial free upgrade to Win 10 - from 1511 to 1607 that has been reduced to 10 days before Windows will auto remove the new Windows.old folder.
Win 10 upgrades do tend to turn off System Protection which removes any restore points because they are for a different version of Win 10 - so after any upgrade, always check that System Protection is on.
I don't have a MS account or use a password so I am able to turn the Lock Screen off.
While there is a link to this in Settings for the mouse controls, go to Devices and Printers and check the mouse settings in there.
I normally just go to Start and type where I want to be.
Go Start - start to type reliability until View reliability history is highlighted then press enter.
You can click on any red crosses or info for the days these are marked to check if any of the upgrades have installed a new driver for your mouse.
If so then it may allow you to roll it back, but it could be as a result of what is in the upgrade - I've had and still have a hell of a problem with IE 11 which is my main browser since the upgrade to 1607.
I also miss the Win 7 method of displaying the icons in the system tray, but as long as the basic ones are there, then that will do me.
As for Windows Defender, your 3rd party AV program may not be starting as quickly as it should be, in which case, WD will be active.
Quite often after booting up I will get notification alerts for antivirus and firewall and when I double click on my Norton Security icon, I can get a window that says Loading... before the UI comes up.
This may be why you are also seeing bits about WD.
When you are loading a program or changing anything, you will always get the UAC pop up regardless of whether you are logged in with an admin or standard user account - it's a safety feature, although you can disable UAC but that's not recommended.
I think I've covered everything :)
