Hi Joop,

You can read this.

https://www.howtogeek.com/357757/what-are-core-isolation-and-memory-integrity-in-windows-10/

I turn off all of this stuff along with virtualization, c-states, etc. I also remove the spyware and adware. I leave windows defender and firewall on. (if I needed the extra power or was performing live, I might turn them off to avoid glitches).

However, I only use Windows for Cantabile. My daily driver is Linux. I only connect to the internet briefly perhaps twice a year to update licenses.

If your music computer is connected to the internet, it is probably better to keep all of the protection that you can.

Cheers,

John

I don’t have enough data to have an opinion on this.

But some more information about it here that might help you make a decision:

Thanks,
my computer is “music only”, but I also connect to the internet for Youtube, vst’s, this forum etc. I keep it on for now, I do not have the impression that is has a large impact.
