Hello, at first, sorry for my english, got an a bit weird question. Also im living in an very old House, in my Apartment theres no internet access point, so i share it with my Neighbor(he have router in hes Apartment), the Problem is, the walls are extreme Thick(so WIFI dont work at all) and the only way is through Ethernet Cable that going from my Apartment to the Router in my Neighbor Apartment. Now the question, i have also password on PC, using Win 10 with the Win Defender Firewall, have an VPN and all my file sharing options in control Panel are disabled, as much as i know, hes not a hacker but normal PC user, is there an big risk for me that he can access the Files on my PC? If yes, would be Comodo Firewall Free be better option than the Windows 10 build in Firewall?

I would say it's possible yes, but is it likely prolly not. Gotta ask yourself if the person would do something like that, and how intelligent are they.
Here is a firewall much lighter than Comodo. https://xvirus.net/firewall I use this on my machine, should be all you need if you are a bit paranoid.
Make sure that network discovery is off.

Also. Download AVZ 5 for me. Unzip it into a new folder on your desktop.
Then right click on AVZ.exe and run as administrator.
Click on File then TroubleShooting wizard.
Then under issue type. :::::System Issues.
Then dangerousness ::::: All Issues.
Then Click the start button, and then screen shot the outcome for me.

great, i installed only that personal(free) version of that program, but i hope its enough 
thank you for tips, btw i disabled network discovery on settings in control panel, no idea how do i do it from the link you uploaded sadly because cant find "Computer Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Windows Firewall with Advanced Security." "" 1:02 i just made it turn off btw does that Xvirus Firewall Program disable the windows one, or they work together(on xvirus site there's "Xvirus Firewall is designed to be compatible with Windows Firewall." but no idea what does it mean exactly )?
edit1.
forgott to mention, after i ran that AVZ Program it mentioned 3 Problems(red font) they are
>> HDD autorun is allowed
>> Network drives autorun is allowed
>> Removable media autorun is allowed
no idea or its important or i can just leave it

XVirus works along side the windows firewall. So what ever rules you create in windows firewall will still be applied. But with the added security you will know whenever anything else new is trying to connect, without a doubt.
Have you disabled these services?
Open Notepad copy paste the code box below into open notepad, do not copy the word code. Save to desktop as fix.bat then right click fix.bat run as admin. This will kill those services.

- Function Discovery Resource Publication FDResPub

- SSDP Discovery SSDPSRV
- UPnP Device Host upnphost
Open Notepad copy paste the code box below into open notepad, do not copy the word code. Save to desktop as fix.bat then right click fix.bat run as admin. This will kill those services.
Code:
@echo off

Should be no issue with the VPN that I could see happening. First thing delete the old batch file add the word pause to the end of the batch file. Then download RunX and unzip it to your dersktop. Drag and drop the newly modified .bat file onto RunX.exe. Then click run, you will run this with the highest privelage possible, and the pause will allow you to screen shot the outcome of the entire process.
Code:
@echo off
sc stop FDResPub
sc config FDResPub start= disabled
sc stop lltdsvc
sc config lltdsvc start= disabled
sc stop SSDPSRV
sc config SSDPSRV start= disabled
sc stop upnphost
sc config upnphost start= disabled
pause
