Strange, I'm doing none of this kind.
I have only one monitor.
I only use a calibre at a time.
I do not use cleaners or orhter such utilities
I do not have any antivirus or firewall, for my computer is, was and will be never connected to internet.

It simply reverts to some predefined values. Maybe these could be changed so anything "wrong" happens the result will be "right".

PS: when I was long time part of the support stuff, almost every single issue we had to solve for our customers was related to the skeleton we built our application, imported from a very well-known backthen software foundry (and damn expensive, too). We had to redirect a lot of man-hours from the develeopment to bugs-finding and designing workarounds. We might have had written our own foundation classes, but this wisdom came too late.
