Windows 10: Code that I just compiled identified as Trojan:Win32/Fuerboos.C!cl

I'm currently taking Pluralsight's "Learn Programming in C++" course and compiled a C++ application using MS Visual Studio 2019 consisting of four lines:


int main

{

return 0;



}

It was identified by multiple engines on virustotal.com as a threat, specifically by Windows Defender as Trojan:Win32/Fuerboos.C!cl. First time I executed it was as a complete file compiled from code downloaded from Pluralsight. I selected the option to have the "threat" removed. But then I created a brand new project without using the Pluralsight-supplied .sln file, just inserting the .cpp source code file into a newly created project. The same virus threat warning was issued.


Any idea whether I'm dealing with a false positive or with some sort of threat sitting on Pluralsight's servers?

What is the recommended steps to delete Trojan Win32/Gatrid.E!cl?

Original title: Trojan Win32/Gatrid.E!cl

Just isolated this malware. If I delete, is that all that is necessary? Has it infected other files. How does it gain access. What is the recommended steps that should be taken now. This specific Trojan did not show up when I entered a community search.
Thanks

GNS3 version 1.4.6 detected as a trojan

Members on the GNS3 forum swear there is no trojan present and that other malware programs do not identify GNS3 installer exe as a trojan, yet defender does. Anyway Microsoft can take a look at this and either eliminate the false positive or confirm that
they are in fact the only malware scanner identifying this issue?

It is identifying "Win32/Varpes.M!cl"
