Instructions:
1️⃣ Go to your computer’s settings or control panel.
2️⃣ Find:
- User accounts → check if you’re admin or standard.

- Antivirus status → is it turned on?
3️⃣ Write a short note in the LMS journal:
“Today I checked my system. I found that automatic updates are (on/off), antivirus is (on/off), and I plan to improve by ____.”
