Is there such a thing as the perfect security software set up?

[Stee41]

I’m Running Win 10 64 bit,

I Have tried for years to get this right, but there is always a negative side to whatever I have chosen in the past according to various software specialists, mayeb due to Bias opinions I don’t now, so what would the PCHF Specialists recommend to keep me my machine running smooth, I use free software.

What Antivirus protection?
Anti Malware?
Maintenance software?

Cheers all

Secure Plus (cloud) with this setup you can run another AV on your pc,without conflicts.
VooDoo Shield
rKill
Rogue Killer
Adware Removal
Super Anti Spyware.. Does a good job,but is better at getting rid of all those tracking cookies.
Key Scrambler

Browser Protection Ghostery,Browser with built in ad block,ABP (ad blocker) , HTTPS Everywhere

And these of course. https://pchelpforum.net/resources/ca...nti-malware.4/

On those i posted no,very easy to keep updated and easy to use. Note before i use any malware scanner i run rkill first.

About forgot this..on the running another AV while using Secure plus cloud AV,i run Windows Defender on a schedule,with this configuration.

While they’re other AV’s that are probably better than Windows Defender (win 10) ,i thought i use this for a while to see how it goes.
