Just a few notes from reading your Speccy snapshot

Two things
... first having the Windows live path statement in the user variables overrides the machine variable. This isn't causing any immediate issues, but might down the road if MS changes WL path.
... second, I see no references to SysWOW64 or Program Files. This might not be important becasue I've seen references to machines without it. It just caught my attention.
Most of this is junk that steals processing when active. The CCleanerSkipUACOpen task circumvents UAC when you launch it, so that can stay.
I always update manually so I know what goes on my system. All updater tasks EXCEPT AntiVirus can be safely removed from msconfig->startup tab and Task Scheduler if not cleared after you modify the startup tab.
OpenCandy is comsidered unwanted software that usually gets on your system as a toolbar add-on when you install a wanted piece of software. ESET Online scanner or Malwarebytes normally takes care of removing it.
SmartDefrag sounds as though it is part of Adv SysCare
AWC - don't know, but a quick Google makes it out to be part of Adv SysCare

7-Zip works too, just not as a reader - you have to open the ISO and extract the files

Uninstall PerfectDisk Pro - another unecessary Tune-up utility. A quick search tells me you might have paid for this one. Still, the windows defrag does it's job better than it's predecessors and the Piriform Defraggler is free and unobstruisive to a system.

Please don't wait on me - finish the trouble shooting tutorial and many things I might suggest will already have been completed.
When you're finished with that, then folow the next path.
The Speccy snapshot showed a few things - not too bad, just a bunch of utilities that lots of people think will help.
The only real concerning items are AdvSysCare (which you said you would or will remove) and DEAMON tools (known to cause BSODs).
