Help with reoccurring Google Captcha prompts

Hello All,

I've recently had a lot of trouble with Google asking me to complete a captcha for every other Google search. As I am a travel blogger, I spend most of my day running Google searches, and this is really starting to hinder my work.

When I clicked on "why am I seeing this" I was told that my searches looked suspicious or were common bot searches, but I am struggling to figure out how "Plitvice Lakes National Park" and "Diocletian Palace in Zagreb" are incredibly common spam bot search terms...

I read through some advice and removed a couple of browser extensions that I didn't need, now all I have left is Adblock, Grammarly, and Google Docs Offline. Could it be Adblock that's causing the captcha issues? Grammarly? I hope it's not Google itself. The problems only started in the last couple of weeks but the captchas are getting unbearable.

I would be very grateful for any tech advice I can get for this situation and I will keep researching solutions myself, although I am running out of things to try.

Sorry if this breaks the "account issues" rule and thanks in advance for your help

dell inspiron 660 with nvidia gpu I bought online tried to replace the cpu and now it only shows an amber light on the LED blinking and beeping won't boot even after putting everything back to normal it does the same thing

I bought a new cpu for my desktop and tried installing it only to realize that it was too big for my desktop, I put everything back to normal though I noticed that some of the case near the hdmi port(not that area but next to it) is missing I proceeded to try to boot it up and it just flashes an amber light on the LED while beeping without starting. Help would be greatly needed.

Getting a weird popup on my desktop every couple of minutes that disappears in less than a second

A weird popup occurs on my desktop every couple of minutes
I wish I could post an image but its a small box that says
Сохранение проекта.. which translated is apparently saving project and a button that says Отмена
My mind went to Viruses but windows defender plus another anti-virus software won't get rid of them.
I know this post might be a long shot but I'm running out of ideas and I don't want to reinstall windows if I don't have to, especially if it's a virus that's just sitting on one of my drives.

Apple photo’s and google photo’s

Hey, Since today I didn’t receive emails anymore on my gmail account. So I finally decided to transfer everything to my apple account (Since I have an iPhone) A lot of important mails are still connected to my old gmail mail address. The reason why the emails didn’t went through was, because I had no space, in my google drive. Now we’re getting to the point. Almost every 15 GB that you can get for free is used by my google photo’s. I finally managed to make some space, for my emails.

The point is that when I make a picture, it goes on my (apple) photo’s and on my Google photo’s. My question is how can I turn that off? Because every new picture/video/Screenshot that I make goes to photo’s and google photo’s and the reason why I don’t want it on my google photo’s is, because it takes up space, which I need for my emails connected with my gmail.

I want the photo’s that I make only in my photo’s and not in my google photo’s. Does anyone know how to do this? Because I’ve tried it and the only thing I got from it is that I cant delete photo’s anymore on my google account. So when I try to delete it, it disappears in my (apple) photo’s, but not in my google photo’s. Hope fully yall can help me.

(Sorry for the grammar mistakes, English isn’t my first language)
