I know Microsoft ended supported for Windows 7 with no updates. But is Windows 7 safe to use or only with the right anti virus software and browser.

 

The pale moon browser says it still supports Windows 7 but I believe Firefox has ended support. Not sure what anti virus software is recommended for Windows 7.

All versions of Windows are "safe" if the user practices "smart computing" (don't visit iffy sites, don't download anything you aren't sure of, etc).
