Advice Request Is there any conflict with Avast Free and Comodo Firewall?

[Prayag]

I want to use avast free av with comodo firewall. Will behaviour shield of avast conflict with comodo firewall at cruelsister's settings on windows 10?

Which would be better for performance,avast or wd?
How is this setup of using wd/avast free with kaspersky anti ransomware tool for business.
When answering my query,please kep in mind i want the setup for normal users like my friends who don't have any technical knowledge nor they can bear their apps and games getting blocked.

Conflict between Avast's Behaviour Shield and Comodo Firewall had been fixed in version 17.2.2288 (see release history). Since you've said that you want antivirus for which you don't have to have techincal knowledge, I'd recommend Bitdefender Free. It's light on RAM & CPU and it doesn't have any advanced settings but still offers very good protection. You just need to install it, create Bitdefender account and then sign in inside program, that's it.

How about just default windows defender. Could it be recommended?

Maybe avast+voodoshield is a easy setup for your friend.

I don't want voodooshield.
Just helm me making a choice between cfw and kart for second layer of defense and between avast and wd for primary av.

For me avast, when I used it with CF (i use CF now without an Av) I just disable BBlocker because CF cover this with autosandbox.

How is wd when used with cfw tweaked?

With safe habits, CFW alone is good enough, but smooth with default WD/w Pup on. Or no settings at all, BD.

WD add nothing to protection, just set smartscreen to block and UAC at max but the real defense is CF.

Should i disable wd completely?

 

[BugCode]

^^ true, but good to have if you are unknowledge dude.

Then install Avast and use it with Comodo Firewall. Problem solved...

 

[Prayag]

should avast bb be disabled in this setup?

 

[Hector1]

Should i disable wd completely?

For your PC yes, for your friend maybe not

Yes you have autosandbox.

 

[Marko :)]

Even if you have it enabled, there shouldn't be any problems.

 

[Prayag]

For your PC yes, for your friend maybe not

so it means that there is no need for wd with cfw,right.

Both Avast and Windows Defender are fully compatible with Comodo Firewall.
It's up to you if you install Avast's behaviour shield or not. Personally I would do so in case you run into malware that somehow evades Comodo's sandboxing (incredibly slim chance but a chance nonetheless).

By using this setup,avast with comodo firewall,of course,would i not need a system image backup solution as i don't want to use such product.
and is this setup light on resources?

Very light. System image is good to have.
