    Hi ,

    Probably the file history must have been bugged by Windows Defends

    In this case, I recommend clearing the history.

    The history is saved in this folder:

    C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Scans\History\Service

    However, it is not possible to access it by copying the path, it is necessary to manually go to each folder as ProgramData is a hidden system folder, and it is necessary to click on the top menu View > Show hidden items.

    After deleting the Service folder, you need to disable and enable real-time protection and cloud protection again.

    I already tried that Sfc /scannow to repair Windows files. and malwarebytes. The problem is that i don't have the virus in that specif folder. And it does nothing like harm to my PC it's. I already checked everything i don't really want to format it because i have alot of files. But i will try again with the Malyware Bytes and see how it goes if you have more advices. Let me know.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi ,

    I am Ivan, I will help you with this.

    Try performing an offline scanner with Windows or to remove the virus, another situation is to use Malwarebytes and MSRT and in the end use the Command: Sfc /scannow to repair Windows files.

    I also recommend after checking using Malwarebytes to check for any malware and lastly MSRT to check for malicious programs, the last case would be formatting.
