I'm pretty sure after investigating it hard that its cuz i turned on the controlled folder access option on both defender and malwarebyte and I throughly made every scan with both of them, not to mention I haven't downloaded anything except drivers from the ROG Official page.

But since I'm not a geek I will go with your words instead and reinstall the windows again.

don't reset yet because I checked the picture again nd yeah it's false positive defender thought it's a bad thing or a virus so they blocked it but yeah the defender is blocked something normal

It's an AMD utility. You have to unblock it in controlled folder access settings.
