Cannot backup files to an external SSD

I run Win 11 Pro on my laptop. Until late September, I've never had an issue with the Win backup process to an external SSD drive, It's been a weekly automated process since I bought my laptop 3+ years ago. Only suddenly, it's not. It appears all the desired content from my C: drive SSD gets backed up, but whatever normally happens next fails, and I ger a message the backup didn't complete. I tried unchecking the checkbox to create a system image file, in case that was a problem. It made no difference. I tested and even reformatted the backup drive to NTFS standards. I've run out of things to try, but I still very much want a successful weekly data backup that's NOT to the cloud. Any suggestions? Thanks for whatever guidance you can offer.

How to delete ghost folders?

I have an issue with Ghost Folders. After moving all the data from a folder, the folder remains and can't be found by Windows. The Folder can be opened and if other folders are in it they can also be opened but can't be deleted either, but they are visibley there. How can I get rid of them for good? I have had this issues on external drives before as well.

PC crashes randomly

Hello, I have downloaded your program to clean up my computer and it has helped a lot. It stopped crashing for a week or two but now crashes again randomly 2, 3 times a day. 95% of the time it makes a restart while 5% I have to unplug the PC to retart the PC.
Any ideas on whats happening. Don't think its a overheat problem as it sometime happens 10 minutes after I started the PC. Also tried different browser, Chrome, Edge and Brave , no difference.

Edge cannot be blocked from opening on login

Your subcategory menu items does not include the subject that I am writing about, so I chose ''default application issues" as the most closest category.

I receive d a message that a new program had been added to the Startup folder. Upon inspection, I noticed that Edge had been re-activated to start on startup. That was done automatically. Please note the bottom of the screen.

It says that Edge is disabled. How do I prevent Windows from adding Edge, or any other program, on startup automatically?
