Windows 10: I am Suspecting that a hacker has taken control of my PC

This expectation has an evidence against it. First of all My Windows defender was disabled by the red error message " this setting is managed by your administrator". I thought that the way to fix this is to edit the registry keysIn registry i moved to >HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Policies > Mircosoft > Windows Defender. I can highly expect a hacker is spying on me. And to fix my Windows defender i edited these keys. There was a key named "DisableRealTimeMonitoring" which i deleted because i knew it was a virus writer's attack. But i caught something suspicious in this scree

I was hoping someone could give me a list of step by step instructions you use as a guide to clean virus, malware...etc. so I can keep my PC clean if it gets infected.

Windows 10 Refresh due to suspected hacker

I have a basic question.

I suspected a hacker installed a keystroke tracking on my computer or something similar.

Unable to get my Lenovo computer (which is also suspect) to launch bios, I tried all instructions F 1, 2, 12; Escape Key, using the Security Recovery option (there was no VEFI Firmware Setting to choose. So I decided to install the Windows 10 refresh option,
which worked. I have Windows 10 pro from work that I wanted to install, but still cannot get the bios to come up on startup, after attempting everything I saw to do this. As a result I am still suspect that the hacker invasion is still on the computer and
is somehow stopping the access to my computers bios at startup.

I am concerned that even after the refresh, my computer may be compromised due to the explanation above, but thought this question could be better answered here.

Question: Does a Windows 10 refresh eliminate a hackers tracking or access (and all my passwords have been changed as well) on my computer?

Thank you for your help with this question.
