@SHvFl:
  • Please specify the exact version of AppGuard and SEP. Maybe Your don't need AG with SEP in real-time protection.
  • As for "Virus and Malware Removal Tools", You may add: ZAM Free, HitMan.Pro Free and MalWareBytes 4 Windows Free.
  • Consider also to run manual backups of important data to external devices, and/or/not only in cloud.

Please kindly reflect Your changes editing Your config, and announcing them here, thanks for sharing Your config :giggle:

I use appguard for guarded processes and not srp. Versions I am not mentioning because they keep changing plus I beta test appguard and don't want to spill the beans.
Malware removal tools are not only bad but also useless because if I get infected I will restore. I am not going to get infected though.
Windows file history is local backups that runs everytime the files change.

That sounds interesting. You don't feel a need for SRP, or you have SEP specially configured to do the job? If the latter, I wouldn't mind hearing a little about that. :)
No, if I wanted srp and didn't have access to appguard i would have done it through windows. If I was in a more fancy mood I would go for applocker through windows enterprise. I am not investing much time in SEP as I will probably switch out of it soon.
Though as you can guess when new rehips version is out I will do srp with rehips as it will be easier and keep on appguard guarding processes.

Any ETA on the new ReHIPS? Or even alpha or beta?
