I am not sure what the correct term would be, but I am looking for something to, by default, ask me if I want to block or allow any and all real time changes in startup folders, startup registry keys, context menus, shell extensions, services, scheduled tasks. And nothing else.
What I am looking for is very closely related to antivirus, I think, so this forum might be a good place to ask.
Things I have already discovered on the internets:
Anvir Task Manager. (a bit old?)
Hibit startup manager (last update 2022, doesn't handle changes in context menu)
WinPatrol (Too old, too slow, outdated...)
chameleon startup manager (bad)
startup sentinel. (good for changes in startups, but incomplete in many other aspects)
Startup Organizer (good software, but doesn't 'guard', it just 'notifies')
Promising software with a lot more potential for a robust solution:
-OSFirewall by ZoneAlarm: Where can I get this?? OSFirewall protection
OSArmor? Comodo Killswitch? (Trying them now)
-An antivirus/firewall that can be configured to "Monitor" against any changes in startup registry keys and specified areas of interest such as startup folders. Is this a thing?
