Only issue is that Win 7 is already past its sell by date and even extended support ends in 2020.

That's because you are getting rid of all the crap then it builds up again and slows it down. As said try Ccleaner and defrag the disc. .Delete all but the latest restore point.

Done all that, make a small difference. Defrag is done on a regular basis.

They were. There was a registry key you added to get the same protection. I am not sure if they still are, although they may have reinstated it since that big ransomeware attack and they realised it was embedded in a load of scanners and so forth. I'll bet there's a shed load of equipment out there with embedded Linux that is never patched and just wide open to the chinese and russian hackers.

Does Firefox work? Or is that unsupported for XP now too?

Had to quit Firefox as it's no longer supported on XP. Currently using Opera which is Chrome based and still supported.

I stopped using Opera when they started logging everything I did.

They all do that one way or another. I don't do anything that would be of interest and all my details are incorrect.
