Hello and welcome to MT @LukeNukesEm.
I suggest AOMEI Backupper or Macrium Reflect. Both have free version. Thanks for sharing your config.
Looks good to me other then back ups needed not only for personal, but system as well.

Great and simple config. Just follow suggestion about backups by @King Mellow . You are protected.
Thanks for sharing.

I would like to suggest for a good free and reliable backup solution Macrium Reflect first and then as a good alternative Aomei Backupper.
Remember backups are only slightly less important than a heartbeat.

You could choose to enable Trusted Applications Mode of KIS, so that you could ditch VS (and ZAM in realtime). But it's your call. Even me, I might choose similar to your combo, if I wanted to.
I think your config is a bit overkill. You can confidently remove zemana from the setup. According to my tests in malware hub, zemana could only protect the in system in 1/6 tests, 5 times the system was infected and 1 of them was heavily encrypted by ransomwares. Its realtime protection with pandora was extremely poor against 0-day malwares I would say. The scanner is top-notch
True, but I just use it for the scanner. For 0 Day malware HMPA and Voodoo Shield will protect me.
Is there a guide on how to use macrium?I would like to suggest for a good free and reliable backup solution Macrium Reflect first and then as a good alternative Aomei Backupper.

Why KIS & EAM both for realtime protection??

That's an ass load of over kill on a system and it's resources, layering to that extent can
actually cause more issues than it solves.
But if your happy, that's what matters, cool.
EDIT: I just realized that this is a Laptop you have all of this running on WOW.
If you really want to extend the life of that laptop and have it breathe a sigh of relief,
Use EmsiSoft AM, and HMPA and save or delete the rest. You wont need Razors Game booster
with that config either JMHO
I game on a DigitalStorm Custom Gaming PC and would not load it down like this,
much less a Laptop, and with your Specs you should not need game booster even for a game intensive as The Division, that tells you just how much you have burdened that thing with that config.

Yeah its alot, but thats only because I am trying to find what I like best. I have removed kaspersky and disabled realtime for zemana. Besides, my laptop uses desktop hardware, so you can call it a easily mobile desktop haha." Real-time Malware Protection: Kaspersky Internet Security, HMPA, Voodoo Shield, Zemana, Emsisoft AM. "

I am using Emsisoft Anti-Malware and Comodo Free to replace kaspersky. Comodo has a better firewall and is perfect for my config, as I do not rely on signatures, but rather behaviour blocking, firewalls, default-deny, and virtualization. Comodo gives me a better firewall, default-deny, and virtualization. I am using Emsisoft for BB, Realtime Signature protection, and a few other threats kaspersky would protect against. While kaspersky is good, there is no need to keep it when there are better options. If I were someone who wanted one simple solution, I would probably use KIS or CIS and wouldn't do what I am doing.
I am striving to make one of the best security configs for security. Besides adding something like shadow defender or deep freeze (which is a pain in the butt), is there anything I can improve? Again this config is for security, not performance. Thanks in advance! SECURE - LukeNukesEm security setup
