Advanced Plus Security Wraith Gaming PC 2020

[silversurfer]

@harlan4096 how did you get Edge Chromium to work in Sandboxie? Every time I try to run it sandboxed it will just throw errors about plugins not designed to run sandboxed and ublock origin would crash.

Edge Chromium (80.0.361.111) running fine here, Sandboxie 5.33.6, W10 Home 1909, browser extensions: Adguard, Bitwarden

Your Sandboxie issues seems to be related to Windows7 You may trying the new open-source version 5.40.1

Same as silversurfer. Chromium Edge + Sandboxie (5.40.1) works fine here too on Windows 10. uBlock Origin is also installed.

For a gaming PC, nothing can beat the lightness of ESET.

This always seems to be the case. But, boy is BD close this time

Nope guys, Chrome & Edge still seems to have issues with Sandboxie. I guess it's because of either the BPP Mode of ESET or the fact that I'm using Windows 7.

Spoiler: SBIE

What is your version of Sandboxie, 5.33.6 or the new open-source version 5.40.1

I'm guessing that it's ESET BPP that's causing Chrome & Edge to throw errors. I'll try sandboxie on my mom's PC that has Kaspersky Internet Security and will let you guys know.

Microsoft Edge Chromium working fine here with SandBoxie 5.33.6 + KTS2021TR:



But!!

I got this warning every time I close it (I have auto deleting SB Enabled):

Sandboxie working fine here with KIS on Win 7.

ADDED:
AdGuard

UPDATE:

Replaced VoodooShield and AdGuard (slowed down web browsing) with Kaspersky Anti Ransomware Tool and running beautifully alongside ESET. The best of both worlds- ESET signatures with Kaspersky System Watcher and KSN.

How's the resource consumption? CPU and ram? Also I see there's two free versions. One for Home, one for Business. What's the difference?

Both versions looks like the same features/settings, but probably only Home is offered for users...

I haven't measured the RAM consumption but it feels light with ESET and doesn't use much CPU at all.

Backup:
- use a backup solution, with your External HDD, I would recommend Macrium Reflect which is free

Search Engine:
- change this to DuckDuckGo

System Utilities:
- stay clear of CCleaner, my recommendation would be Wise Disk Clean also free to use and Mr @harlan4096 uses this as well

Rest looks good to me, thanks for sharing.

Changed search engine to DuckDuckGo. Thanks for the suggestion, friend.
I too was thinking about ditching CCleaner and going for other alternatives like Wise/Glary/Privazer/Bleachbit.
Since this is my gaming PC, it doesn't have anything in it other than steam games (which I all have backed up to my external HDD). So I really don't need a backup solution on this PC. In the worst case, I'll secure erase the SSD and reinstall Windows. And since I'm mostly a careful user, I generally don't get infected (only once in the last 5 years).

 

[Wraith2020]

Here's the RAM consumption of Kaspersky Anti-Ransomware Tool and ESET. Strangely, as opposed to using 600MB ESET uses around 60MB of my RAM. I have pagefile disabled. Maybe ESET hides the actual RAM usage from task manager.

No worries friend, glad I can help.

Give Bullguard IS a try and see

Give Bullguard IS a try and see

I tried Bullguard last year and their protection was nowhere near the big guys. I may give it a try on my laptop. G-DATA did a much better job than BullGuard.
