have you ever installed any 3rd party firewall or antivirus on current system? and if so which one?

I had avast on there long ago... It is removed now. I only use Windows Defender Firewall/ Windows Security for security

Create a Windows 10 installation media, Boot from it , After the computer boots up and you see the Windows Setup dialog appears, you can press Shift + F10 keys simultaneously, and this will open Command Prompt.

Use:
bcdedit /deletevalue {default} safeboot
If that gives an error, use:
bcdedit /deletevalue {current} safeboot

If this does not work Follow BizGuy’s solution here:
