I got on this on Windows 10 too.

At first I thought I got a virus or something, but then realized this was some ASUS bullshit.

Glad I'm running linux on my asus computer, but I'm gonna re-check my bios for any bullshit like this.

Yeah, when I saw that shit I had a mini heart attack. Opened up process explorer to identify what was running. Found it was Asus and basically said "huh, how are you still here - delete"
