AOMEI is also a decent solution.Thank you for your feedback. Which product would you recommend? Acronis is the only product I know about image backup
Thanks. I just found out that Acronis combined Backupper with anti-malware
. It's quite too much for me. I will try AOMEI next Windows clean install

G-DATA Internet Security to Bitdefender Internet Security
Unlike AV-Comparatives Performance Test Report, G-DATA IS was too heavy for my lapotop espcially on RAM(2 major process takes almost 800MB RAM). It was lighter before but became quite heavier.

Windows 11 clean re-install
tested MBAM but I don't like it.
Real-time Protection From Bitdefender to Trend micro Internet Security(want no more change. Trendmicro is only product that cause no problem or makes no bug)
+ subtle inconvenineces using other products
ESET IS: Slow down my Internet Speed. can't fix until I reinstall my Windows.(Suppose problem related to the Network scanning feature. This is also a old problem)
G-DATA IS: Excessive RAM Usage casues real slow environment.
F-Secure: no problem using it but too simple. I can't configure nothin. detects malware but have trouble removing them several times.
Sophos Home Premium: trouble with Adguard. rarely updates program.
Emsisoft: Slow down my laptop.
Norton 360: As I know Norton's Web protection heavily relies on the SafeWeb Extension, but Norton doens't fix the graying out problem continuing from almost 2020.
Ahnlab 365: The lightest Product I've ever used. but it's bad on Web Protection.
Bitdefender IS: it changes security advanced configuration of antivirus itself.(turn off script scan and archive scan, don't know why.)

From Trendmicro IS to F-Secure SAFE
Trendmicro has false postive on my daily using program and can't set it to exception. It keeps blocking

RTP: From F-Secure SAFE to ESET IS.(b/c Banking protection malfunction) ESET IS is still light and effective.(Set to all Aggressive for sure
and internet problem doesn't exist anymore)
Added: Appcheck Pro Anti-Ransomware, AOMEI Backupper, Hard_Configurator(thanks to @Andy Ful), PrivaZer
Removed: Kerish Doctor(doesn't support my system language.), CCeaner

RTP: From ESET IS To Avira Antivirus Pro.
I'm giving it a using Avira, one of my favorite AV vendors.
- Pros: It became very light on resource usage almost as F-Secure.
Removed outdated some legacy UIs like Luke Filewalker. I really hated UI discrepancy inside and outside of Avira UI but much better now.
Web Protection is working fine, I was surprised that the program doesn't need extra browser extension to block harmful website.
Scan speed is also fast.
- Cons: Overall Program is still unstable. Rarely, it doesn't show alert.
As known, the context menu scan and log area don't exist.
Changed UI is better than before but it doesn't mean it's nice, honestly I doubt there's proper design team in Avira corp.
Bloatwares come together when installing Security. I guess Avira uses optimizer from Ccleaner? It breaks some other program files. So I never use optimizing or smart scan.
The Sentry SDK is on my working process list but never seen it's 'really' working.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Avira is.....nah
Trial for a week or so. I doubt Avira(Norton exactly) will continue it's product line. Product even seems to be not tested inside the corp. Going back to ESET or F-secure

RTP : From F-Secure to Bitdefender IS. My Norotn subscribtion has ended and F-Secure SAFE licnese has few days left. I found the Bitdefender license for 2yrs bought on discount season last yr. Currently, Configuration changing without permission issue seems fixed, and feel slightly lighter & faster despite my old laptop. Bitdefender is getting nice and steady score from various tests(especially in MITRE ATT&CK) like Kaspersky. And think I will continue to use this unless it makes problem.(I don't think it will make one b/c BD & it's components became really stable recent years.)

RTP: From Bitdefender IS to F-Secure SAFE.
I tried to use BD IS but my system becomes slower and sluggish. And it kept notifying to use Erase tool, and VPN which I don't.
I renewed F-Secure SAFE and it will be protecting my laptop for another 1 year.(and I will be wasting another 1 year of BD license)
Sorry for BD but F-Secure is 'ultralight' as its engine name notes and I love its simplicity.

Have been using F-Secure Safe for the last few months with Simple Windows Hardening and Firewall Hardening. No issues.
Did you enable your F-Secure extension?

RTP: From F-Secure to Vipre Advanced Security
I tested Vipre and I liked it. It has built-in Firewall and has nice performance. There are many vendors which use Bitdefeneder SDK, and I think this is the best one. UI is not the modern one but there's few lags and bugs and its BB is nice compared to other AVs.
