Hello,

I would say most certainly so... you had virus support cease in Jan 2020.

That means any network, wireless remote or whatever may contain viruses and bots that you are no longer protected against. ie, all those new variants since about second quarter of 2020 onwards...

So, you need to think what you have stored on your puter, cookie wise, personal data and everything else.

If you never go near a network np, but means you can't have wireless either.

Ps. You might want to do some basic checks, defrag/scandisk, check your free disk space, Windows 7 I think liked virtual drives. If the machine is old enough, memory and chip upgrades at the end of the shelf cycle can get very cheap.
