Advice Request Is there any conflict with Avast Free and Comodo Firewall?

[Arequire]

By using this setup,avast with comodo firewall,of course,would i not need a system image backup solution as i don't want to use such product.
and is this setup light on resources?

I'd still suggest making a system image backup.
Comodo Firewall is incredibly light. Avast runs light for me with no noticeable slowdown but your experience may differ. I'd suggest running the setup for a few days and seeing if you're happy with the performance.

You don't need to install software to create system image backup. You can create it using tools that are coming with Windows.

can system image be made in the primary partition in which the windows is installed.

No. You can create it on other partitions, as well as portable devices.

As i have said in my previous posts,I want to use avast/wd free with comodo fw.
Does avast hardware virtualization and deepscreen which is based on it,will cause any conflict with comodo sandbox?
Again,which is better with comodo fw in windows 10, wd or avast free?

It's better not to have 2 real-time AV together i.e. WD and Avast AV unless you use one on demand.

I just ask which of the two is better with comodo fw?
I haven't mentioned anywhere that i want to use both the AVs with cfw.I just want one which is better compatible with cfw in windows 10.
You should understand the question first,before answering it.
Haven't you read the word "or" between AVs,which clearly tells i want one not both of them to protect my system.

You want to set up for your system or for your friends' system who have no technical knowledge in these thing as said in your starting post?

Go with the defender then.

Then you don't recommend Avast AV and CFW to them

Try something simpler like using the default Windows Firewall and WD(with PUP enabled). If you think WD is not good enough then use BD Free.

BD Free have 2 disadvantages

a) It does not auto scan a USB device when inserted.
b) It may slow your system down as time goes by. This the user will need to check.

Advantages

a) It updates the signatures automatically
b) Frequent signature updates
c) BD is one of the best AV. It is an AV + SB + BB

The default Windows Firewall does NOT take care of outgoing notifications unless you go into the Advanced section to enable it. Otherwise take a simple firewall like the Tiny Firewall(a GUI for Windows) or the Xvirus Personal Firewall which handles incoming/outgoing notifications. They don't have special features like HIPS, SB, BB etc

so, doesn't avast hardware virtualization interferes with comodo's sandbox?
Is wd enough with cfw?
I am a risky user so suggest me the best advice:what to use with cfw tweaked-avast or wd,for maximum performance and compatibility.

There is a parallel thread here

You can try WD + Immunet 5.0 + CFW for the insuffucient knowledge's person but i can´t remember if CFW likes Immunet!!

You dont need WD or Immunet with CF.

BitDefender/Avira/Avast with Immunet is a good combo.

Edit: Immunet doesnt recognize WD. If you have CIS, Immunet recognizes the Comodo av.

Windows Defender has been under a lot of criticism lately because of potential attack vectors that were discovered. It is not as strongly built as we believed.
So at this point, Avast looks like a better option.
Try installing Avast without behavior shield, and see if everything is fine with Comodo.
If yes, then you can try adding behavior shield as a second stage. If it makes trouble, just uninstall that component, or do a system image restore.
