+1 on this. CFW plus Windows Defender with ConfigureDefender or another AV. OP would benefit from reading some of the threads/videos of CFW CS. It's configured to protect on its own, but requires some user knowledge.

No1 mention that you are using insider preview on main desktop?
Cf+ CS you have no benefits of using hips at all
OSA is useless as you have CF
Its bit overkill even with SAP + CF
I would just run CIS + CS settings , to get microsoft security center registered + no overlaps of other antivirus components

That's why his config is tagged as Risk
Just an update I removed SAP and os Armor and installed SEP without the firewall because I still want to use CFW, CFW now has hips turned off to avoid any clash with each other

Just removed CFW and added SEP networking features
can I add voodoo shishield to SEP or is it enough on its own?

Does SEP have any weakness that can be covered by voodoo shield or is it better to have SEP by itself?

When Windows 11 is officially released October 5 (or whenever), will those of us with "Risk" on our configurations get that removed?
Do we have to ask you to remove it?

Just an update I removed SEP and McAfee EPS, is there a guide for the best security from it?
just an update removed McAfee endpoint for Symantec endpoint and added Voodooshield
Just an update removed Symantec endpoint for McAfee endpoint, still with voodoo shield this will be my last change for a while.

You can keep enabled Windows-Firewall, because SpyShelter Firewall using by default a compatible driver for WFP (Windows Filtering Platform). In such a case it's no problem to use two Firewall running together... Note: SpyShelter Firewall isn't like a full software Firewall provided by vendors like for instance ESET or Kaspersky.
thanks @silversurfer for making that clear I thought that might be the case but I wasn't sure , Is there any advantage to having a full software firewall as some security vendors don't have one anyone an example Trend Micro.

One real advantage would be using 1 software only instead of using in real-time protection two security software like in your case: GData Antivirus and Spyshelter, so incompatibilities between two security software are possible compared to all-in-one product with capabilities to setup and control a built-in Firewall. In your case it’s worth to consider: GData Internet Security

It can be as good as comodo / voodoo with the right settings but by default it’s weak
SEP is an incredibly strong tool made for enterprise mainly no one uses the default settings as they are faulty
But in default it might be able to compare with Norton
think about it as Norton just with a lot of features
And use up to 1 main av and one extra layer
Personally the less the better !

If you’re going with just one product
Then gdata ,sep , comodo ,f secure , kis are my recommendations
