If you have Windows 10 it already comes with a good antivirus built in, use it and let it monitor and scan your computer.

Windows defender should be setup to be active all the time.

I used free down loaded PC protection for years, Evast etc etc. Pain in the ass to manually run them, check them all the time and viruses and crap still get through and mess up your PC then you gotta down load more free antivirus and cleaners to fix your PC and spend days trying to clean it. Screw that McAfee is worth it, $19 per year . . . |

Just wait a year and you'll see how they hijack your browser telling you to pay every five minutes.
