Your overall config is okay, but there are some very important things that need to be changed.
  • Set UAC to Always Ask
  • Turn on SmartScreen. Emsisoft may have a reputation network, but SmartScreen is more widely used and can be a critical part of a computer's safety. Unless your computer can absolutely not run it, you should keep it on.
Other than that, your configuration look good!
