Emanuel. Security Configuration

Looks good to me. Any reason you use Ghostery, Adblock Plus and uBlock Origin? I'd personally suggest ditching ABP due to it having a higher memory footprint, being less configurable and having lesser blocking capabilities than uBO out of the box. I'd also suggest switching Ghostery to either Disconnect or Privacy Badger and adding HTTPS Everywhere to your extensions.
 
I would personally agree with Arequire here but it's a decent security config you have there all the same :)
 
Hi, @Emanuel.
Your security config looks good to me, but I would suggest setting UAC to always notify and maybe Malwarebytes as an on-demand scanner.
I hope I helped,

Security software-wise, you are all good.

As @JM Security suggested above, you do not require both Adblock Plus and uBlock Origin (they do exactly the same thing, having them both on just consumes resources in your system and probably makes your browsing slower).
uBlock Origin is much simpler, more modern, and faster than Adblock Plus.

Make sure you use Windows Backup to create a system image of a known safe state of your system, so that you can restore it to that exact state in case of a software disaster (malfunction or infection).

That would be all. Other than this, you are good to go. :D

Thanks for sharing your config with us.

Adblock plus I have it to block some crawlers and to block social buttons. It makes good combination with uBlock.
