With no realtime protection and only windows defender and firewall you have stripped the OS of its built in security.
Enable UAC preferably to max and enable Smartscreen.
Way too many browser extensions.
Consider some type of system & data backup solution.

Hello,
yes, enable UAC, Smartscreen, and I hope you have Windows Defender enabled by default (?)
And I would not be confident with using the Firefox password manager (I it did years ago, but it's risky).
Because you are using keepass, I suggest to add the Keefox extension to your loooong list. ;)

Hello.

Thank for all!

I'll have bitdefender lifetime edition soon!

I don't need UAC or smartscreen... I program in AutoIt, and These programs prevent me to program my scripts correctly.
Else, when another person use my pc, I active them.

Thanks for advices.

Ps : sorry for any mistake, I'm French. ^^

See you soon !

Yo.

Thanks for information, but I already knew. Very nice.


Just a question : my configuration is always risky because i disabled Smartscreen and UAC for myself (if other persons use my pc, i active them), and I prefer make manually basic backups ?

Thanks for answers.

Bye.

Hello everyone. :)

Always ENABLE Smartscreen and UAC.

If it's only for that, i'll continue to use my risky configuration ^^
As I said / write it several times, I disable theses elements when I program, because otherwise, they conflict uselessly.

So, i'll continue to take risks, which, for me, are not. I insist on the "For me". ;)

Nb : I will soon test Zemana. And compare with MBAM.

See you!
