Your local network is compromised, not just 1 windows device. It could potentially leak enough personal information for more targeted attacks.

The chances are slim but AI may enable targeted hacking at scale. I simply wouldn't risk downloading shit on a device with known security vulnerabilities, without any scope of fixes.
