i don't think Kompas is needed when you have EAM + Zemana Premium; also you should use a VM if you play with Malwares.

Very Solid Configuration.
Might want to add in VM since I believe you're also playing with Malwares too right?
Thanks for sharing.

OP does have shadow defender listed, so I assume shadow moded is used when malware is tested?

I use shadow defender for try a software, not for test the malware so far.

So, Should I use Shadow Defender for test malware?

Thanks for sharing.

maybe shadow defender is enough?

To test malware always use a virtualized system. Shadow Defender can be used, although I would rather recommend a virtual machine for it. Personal preferences I suppose.

Sorry i did not see you had SD, it should be enough i have tested hundreds of malwares with SD.

Shadow Defender creates a low level "virtual copy" of Windows system ensuring that interventions applied are recorded in a designated "safe mode".

SD can be used to test malware but we consider that a VM offers the best protection because it creates a guest system without any personal information that would be present on the real system.

If you use SD for malware experiments you have to disconnect the internet to prevent personal data's steal (virtualized but still resident on disk).

Solid Configuration. Thanks for sharing.

 

[Mihir :-)]

Nice configuration.Just two suggestion is that use a password manager and set UAC(User Account Control)at least default.

Great config in terms of real-time scanners, also Shadow Defender is a very versatile piece of software.

If you ever want to test malware, I recommend you do so in a virtual machine. A free and open-source high-end virtual machine deployment and management application is VirtualBox.

Also, you may want to have some sort of system imaging software for creating full backups of your system. System images allow you to create a backup of a specific state of your system, so that you can use them to restore that exact state in the case of malware infection or other software malfunction. I recommend Paragon Backup & Recovery Free Edition for this purpose.

Other than that, you're good to go. Thanks for sharing your config with us!

AOEMEI Backupper Professional is not good for it purpose?

Of course it is good, I just like to recommend Paragon Backup & Recovery Free Edition.

Here's the other alternatives that I consider worthwhile and effective:

• AOMEI Backupper Standard
• Macrium Reflect Free

Good config! I agree with some of the suggestions already posted especially a VM for playing with Malware.
