Did you disable WD?
No, forgot to mention WD, it's enabled by default.
Changed my mind once more, since HitmanPro.Alert has Anti-Malware (real-time protection) included, I want to try running the system with WindowsDefender disabled for a couple of days, additionally will add Hard_Configurator (Recommended SRP) by @Andy Ful

I'm sure now @harlan4096 need to change the status "secure"

To me meaning of "advanced" user is someone who can just use windows inbuilt protection mechanisms, know how to tweak them, mitigate systems other attack vectors, and still be relatively safe from cyberthreats because of a knowledge from where and how malware can infiltrate in the system. He would be just fine using Windows Defender or even disable it and relay on the HMP.A realtime protection. As for a longtime AV tester who @silversurfer is, I have no doubts about hes deep security knowledge. Thanks for having you in the MT @silversurfer :emoji_v:
