So many threads on antivirus...

I won't claim any are the best, but I will say that I tend to recommend AVG for Windows.

For those who are not irresponsible when it comes to security and are brighter than your average user, I highly recommend ClamAV because it is FOSS and reasonably effective.

2nd on that one avast and Malwarebytes, I had issues with running Avast on some games with Windows 10. So, I have it on 7 and run Windows AV on 10 with Malwarebytes on dual op system.

You should check out Trend Micro, it's really helpful

Why has this question been asked so much recently?

started off with AVG free for years, then swapped to Avast Free. Then i even paid for some features of Avast.
I find that when one gets better the others try to catch up (2-3 years back AVG was better then internet reviewd Avast to be the best from last year) - so you swap back and forth.
I cancelled Avast becasue it just messed my machine about in the end - always wanting to update something but freezing and taking forever. I didn't find it user friendly like AVG - but internet said it was better so lesson learnt - pick one and stick with it

Yes, paid malwarebytes has real time protection in addition to the other features. Just get the free version and scan your pc from time to time, it does a hell of a good job finding and removing malware.
