Hello,

My Windows antivirus is detecting the virus in the title, and I can't figure out how to remove it. I've done the offline scan etc. but it keeps coming back.

    • Save Fixlist.txt to your Downloads folder.
    • Close any apps with unsaved work.
    • Run FRST64.exe and click "Fix".
    • The computer will reboot to complete the procedure.

    Please upload Fixlog.txt so I can check if any further action is needed.

    Please provide Farbar Recovery Scan Tool (FRST) logs for analysis.

    https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/farbar-recovery-scan-tool/

    Note: If you are using Edge or Chrome, SmartScreen may initially block the download. Click on the three dots next to the warning and select Keep => Click the Delete drop arrow => Keep anyway.

    • If your computer's language is not English, rename FRST64.exe to FRST64English.exe
    • Run the tool, leave the default settings, and press Scan.
    • Zip the logs, FRST.txt and Addition.txt, then upload to a cloud storage service like OneDrive, Google Drive or gofile.io
    • Post the share link.
