    Antivirus turns off

    Do you have an old antivirus that is still present on pc? Sometimes antivirus programs do not like each other and will cause issues, could also have a virus already that is not letting antivirus run.

    Moving to SSD, can I copy a few folders instead of full install?

    You have to do a fresh copy of windows or use cloning software to move the image from the old hdd to the ssd, if you copy over a few files it won't work. I have done both but prefer doing a fresh windows copy.

    Windows Updates keep failing

    I have had this same issue, i tried for hours to fix it without any luck, I wound up fixing it by re-installing windows on the pc, make sure you have important files backed up if you do this.

    Random computer shutdown with no BSOD or warning

    Run a test on your ram and see if you have a bad stick, i have had that before and it can make pc freeze up, if you have more than one stick you should test one at a time. could be hdd also if ram tests ok.

    Changing OS drive to storage drive

    Generally speaking you should still have access to files but what i recommend is that you backup files to an external hdd then format old drive, that will make sure you have them and also make switching to ssd less of a problem.
