Mine's fine. I don't know what problems you had with Windows 10, but my i5 PC is holding up just fine.

I just use malwarebytes premium. I'm careful with what I download so I don't think it would be a virus.

I think you've misread what I've wrote mate. The results I found said it was an antivirus that does it. NOT a virus. Just a issue with the software. try a reinstall and check again it might be that.
