Burn your PC, that usually does the trick

Malwarebytes is your best bet, if not format your PC, unless it's a keylogger that can lodge itself in the firmware.

 

Then i have no idea, replace everything really

The only visible problem I have right now is ABNORMAL CPU usage. (70-90% idle), usually, it's just less than 10%.

Right get Malwarebytes from here: 

 

https://www.malwarebytes.com/

 

Run/scan/remove.

 

Then drop a DL on this:

 

https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/

 

Run and scan.

 

Finally run this:

 

http://www.techspot.com/downloads/1278-hitman-pro.html

 

It's free for a single run.

 

Of course run Defender or your choice of AV, reboot when told too.

That seems pretty normal. 13%

 

if you really have a keylogger, try to uninstall through programs and features, and then delete anything it downloaded.

then, run Malwarebytes to see if you removed it successfully.

if not, then I would recommend you re-install windows, to get a completely clean slate. (but back up your files first.)

well there is no way to be sure if it downloaded any more malware that was not detected in the scan. safest bet would be to reformat unless you trust that the scan removed everything

This is the only safe thing to do, once you have formatted it, change every password you can remember.

so when it gets to 100% look at task manager to see what's using all the power. that might actually help you isolate the virus.

Before he wipes the computer, surely it would be more prudent to check if he actually is infected, unless he already has backups of any vital data!

I would be working on making backups of critical data, but backing everything up after archiving it into .rar archives (WinRAR) Then before restoring them on a new system, ensuring they're scanned thoroughly before moving them off the backup device. 

 

But before all that you should run the tools, I mentioned earlier above ^^ and determine if you are actually infected.

That happens every time you open Task Manager.

your cpu usage going for the 100% might be because its starting up task manager, since my machine does that too when i start it

(Edit: Wow Jade, at the same time as i was going to say it)

Malwarebytes has finished scanning now just the hitman remains . I am going to do a full windows defender scan of the C drive'
