So i installed appguard but when i try to run my game (Smite) its blocks it when i press play, i opened appguard and went to Customize, Guarded apps, Settings and added the folder and services etc and changed to read/write access.

Ive alss added them in the guard but it still blocks them.

Add the entire games folder to User Space set to No and then try launching it.
sorry reading back over i saw you said set to know, now the game runs fine, thanks a lot for your time. will i have to set this for everything that dont run well?

Also is there any other configuration settings i have to use for it to detect zero day malware?

Do you use any backup/imaging software?Nothing better than having a backup image,best protection against Malware.:D
i used rollback rx but i defrag my hdd so it #####s it up so i dont really use any back up as i dont have a backup storage usb device or anything. and it takes up a lot space other programs when i use my hdd.

@Viper007, what is your security setup? what version of Windows are you using?
If using Windows Vista, 7 or 8 have UAC on default settings and never approve anything on the notifications unless you know for sure it is safe. Never download files from suspicious sources, keep your software and Windows updated at all times and you will probably never see any zero-day malware.

The best protection against zero-day malware is your own actions, no security software can match that.
Examples of good sources to download files are Softpedia, MajorGeeks, FileHippo, SnapFiles, BetaNews Fileform and DownloadCrew.

Bad examples are from email links, IM links, social websites like Facebook, ads and any other sources that you don't know for sure is safe.

Zero-day malware doesn't magically appear on your system, you must manually download an infected file, manually run it, ignore UAC and Windows digital certificate warning then it will be allowed to infect your system. Once you learn how to safely download files then you will no longer need advanced security products that block games, good programs and have to manually be tweak all the time.

Enjoy!! :D

i know its my actions that why i dont download anything unless i know its safe and ill know if its safe or not by research, but i have emsisoft anti malware, comodofirewall with hips etc, zemana, appguard for second line of defence.

nothing gets past my comodo firewall it auto sandboxes anything unrecognised then i decide weather its safe or not.
