Use backups for your datas and system. You won't like to lost everything.

Nice setup, if you use a backup then you are fine.
You can add a second opinion scanner such as Zemana Anti-Malware free or piad and eventually Process Hacker or Process Explorer that allow a good manual inspection of the active processes, potentially by identifying the malicious ones.

The manual approach is often underestimated because we entrust ourselves to the automation of security apps but in my opinion, often it is necessary to take control of the situation.

Considering adding Zemana AM free...

Considering adding Zemana AM free...

Do it
Also one suggestion You can use Avira browser safety its a good Addon

I would put Zemana Anti-Malware or VoodooShield next to ESET

A system backup solution is a very important part of a security config no matter what you use it for.
Macrium reflect & AOMEI Backupper both offer good free programs.
I would consider CCleaner for a system utility solution if not already installed.
All in all you have a good config! Thanks for sharing it with us

Nice security config. I would recommend replacing WOT with Bitdefender TrafficLight or Avira Browser Safety.

I would add ZAM Free and MalwareBytes as on-demand scanners. Please add SandBoxie Free (and use it while browsing to have more protection), CCleaner Free for System Utilities and please follow suggestions about backups, it is very important.

Thanks for sharing.

 

[nishaddesilva]

Thanks for all your suggestions. BTW I use CCleaner portable
Is Avira Browser Safety and Trafficlight better than WOT?

 

[nishaddesilva]

Removed WOT and added ABS

Hey, @nishadrox!
Please consider adding some kind of a backup solution such as AOMEI Backupper or Macrium Reflect and setting UAC to always notify.
Thanks for sharing your config!
