You got a major Windows update (probably to version 2004) on 2020-07-03 .
That created the old windows folder.

I would uninstall
Intel® Computing Improvement Program
I think it's causing an error.
You might also want to try uninstalling MalwareBytes, With Kaspersky you probably don't need it and it has a conflict with Version 2004:
https://support.malw...tes-for-Windows
Don't see the point of keeping Tweaking.com - Windows Repair installed. Better to uninstall and get a new version the next time you need to use it.
Same goes for RogueKiller
