yess,, i too recently checked on av-test.org . and i think it is good.

Also, I wouldn't trust any driver updates coming from Windows Updates and download them straight from the manufacturer's website, in that case, AMD.

maybe you can use AdGuard AdBlocker Extension it is lightweight and protects you from malware and phishing...
and you can add Emsisoft Emergency Kit or Hitman Pro as on-demand scanners...

Chkdsk should allow the HDD to automatically map those out as bad sectors. You should not need to do anything.

I would back up my data though and run chkdsk again like next week, if you are getting a lot of bad sectors the drive may be going bad.
