if for example windows firewall and bitdefender firewall are both turned on
while download windows 10 through the media creation tool
can that corrupt files ?

i think defender disables itself when it knows there is another firewall operating...

I have bitdefender myself and if i look in settings/security/defender its all greyed out. It doesn't run if you have another AV program.

2 firewalls or 2 AV solutions often step on each other.
