Doing at least one system image backup is recommended.

 

[Exterminator]

Consider some type of system backup solution.
Consider an additional on demand scanner(s).
Apart from the lack of a system backup you have a nice secure Windows 10 config.
Thanks for sharing it with us

if KIS KSN and System watcher didn't catch it, nothing will, except maybe Default-deny.
also last time you posted you got infected with Avira, not sure where this post is coming from now..

I would also like to suggest making backups, Macrium Reflect is a great free software to do this with. It is also free and reliable.

Thanks for sharing with us here at MT.

UAC set it to always notify
Replace Adblock with UblockOrigin
Add to broweser(s) HTTPS everywhere
Backups

Yeah @frogboy Macrium is a good system image backup software @carl fish It is so important you backup! Backup, backup, backup. With all the ransomware that is going on, it is cruical to backup so you don't lose any important data. Trust me, it will be all worth it in the end

Like everybody else said, you must add a backup. That way, your data is safe in case of system failure and your config will be secure.

You got Ransomware with Kaspersky? Didn't you get infected with a Coin Miner with Avira?

@carl fish
You need to change your browsing habits and learn from past mistakes, otherwise no matter what AV or Security you use, you'll be exploitable by Malware and Ransomware.

Kaspersky with the correct configuration can be solid protection against malware and threats, that is of course, if the user is willing to learn about Internet (web) Security.

Add some sort of backup to be secure against possible threats, that a Repair cannot fix.

Avira blocked the coin miner i was bit of paranoid after it blocked it

Add ZAM Free.

Replace Adblock with uBlock Origin.

Follow suggestions about backups.

Thanks for sharing.

So far so good on the configuration, likely you need to adjust the Application Control feature in lock down for protection purpose in case it failed to detect by the core protection and System Watcher.

 

[carl fish]

@jamescv7 I have done that, kaspersky picked it up but it dropped two files I was lucky that none of my files got locked
