good config but please enable OS file reputation (smartscreen) :cool:

edit: please do not test malwares on your host PC

Testing malware on your host PC is a high risk to yourself and other networked devices, including data and identity theft. Consider using a Virtual Machine for testing Antivirus and Security software, and if experienced, then only test with malware samples.

hi

i add Virtual Machine and now test malware in Virtual Machine

I hope you've made an error in the compilation of our form about malware testing on your host PC or which version of Acronis do you run?

Acronis Try & Decide (virtualization module) was removed from True Image 2015.
hi

use Acronis True Image 2017

@roxdl Please update this thread with your latest changes.
thanks and update this

Other than the problem of testing malware on your Host PC your config looks good with the changes you have made.
You could enable smartscreen even with KIS installed.
Thanks for sharing your config :)

Are you running uBlock or uBlock Origin?

If uBlock, I suggest uBlock Origin.
uBlock is kinda discontinued or development stopped.
uBlock Origin is from the original uBlock Dev, excellent software & development.

Good configuration, I only suggest that you install as a system utility for a maintenance (like kerish doctor or ccleaner with defraggler and privazer) and in your browser install https everywehere
Thanks for sharing :)
