Just a suggestion...

If you actively test malwares, then it would be best to have a good firewall or at the very least outbound connect notifications.

Some malwares will be able to disable UAC and Windows firewall.

If you wish to continue using WFw, then GlassWire (free) will be a decent choice - especially easy to use when observing malware. There is guide here at MT under Other Security Software subforum. I use it all the time.

There is BiniSoft's Windows Firewall Control also. It is easy to use and highly configurable; provides outbound notifications. $10 for Lifetime license; unlimited installs. I use this as well.

There is TinyWall (free) as well, but not optimal for malware testing.

Good configuration, no problems as you have Vmware + Shadow Defender for testing as long be careful on what you are doing. ;)

Optional suggestion: Upon you want to store passwords or other sensitive information then add Lastpass or others.
