I understand your concerns, but the main issue shoould be to lock your windows system down. You can switch to Linux or Mac as these OS’s are not ‘targeted’ as much as windows, but you have many other issues at that point.
Just learn how to lock your windows system down, and dont do questionable things on your computer like downloading free music/movies/software. You will be “as safe” as you would be on another OS.
