    I'm 99% sure i got a trojan virus (the console windows host) and I tried a bunch of different anti-virus methods (Malwarebytes, Av, and hitman). I'm really just contemplating on deleting the widows host. Is that a bad idea? Or any recommendations?2023-06-18 (1).png

    @SirDookieFart sorry to hear that you think you might have a Trojan! To help us better assist, have you recently downloaded or installed something?

    I’d recommend the following:
    Type “MSCONFIG.” in the search bar from the Start menu.
    Click on the “Boot” tab in the System Configuration box.
    Tick “Safe Mode” and click “Apply,” then “OK.”
    After the system restarts, re-open the configuration box.
    Click on “Startup.”
    Examine the list and see if there are any suspicious files.
    Disable any you deem suspicious.

    Next, check your installed applications and remove any that you are not familiar with.

    Then run a full scan with MS Defender (make sure that this is FULLY up-to-date first!)
