Whenever I install fresh Windows I always install Comodo Firewall but this time I havent installed. Should I install it or use Microsoft Defender Firewall ?

Moreover, no new version of Comodo Firewall from 2012.

I believe that should be a deal breaker and answer your question.

I'm not up to date on Comodo firewall.
that it is from 2012 dont mean a thing in itself.. what is important is if there is any relevant CVE's that's make it good or bad.

I dont give 2 cents for windows firewall as it has hidden override rules to allow core functions to bypass firewall rules.
As one example i posted about over at 10forums is that Windows update can not be blocked in windows firewall. (they might have change that now, but a year ago it wasn't possible) a firewall should ALWAYS be able to block all services and all programs to get internet access.

Comodo has one thing superior to windows firewall.. block all inbound/outbound connections by default and ask for permission.... Windows firewall philosophy is.. Let everything go online..

So is Comodo firewall from 2012 good or bad????
ask AI to list all CVE's and also ask the AI to explain the real threat of those CVE's from your own setup perspective/use case.
a lot of CVE's is local if someone sit at your computer.. i often ignore a lot of those, as if someone has physical access to the computer, you have bigger problems then one CVE. *lol*
The dangerous ones is those that can be exploited from the outside.
