    Threats detected by Windows Defender

    If you really want to be sure if those threats are removed completely then I would suggest to clean install Windows. That’s the only way to know for sure.

    And always disconnect from the internet next time you encounter malware. That’s the first step to take, especially if you have more than one computer sharing the same network.

    Threat detection Options confusion

    Hello,

    I had a virus on my PC and windows defender quarantined it.

    But I clicked on the “Action” button and has three options: Removes , Restore , and Allow

    I clicked on Remove, but the threat status changed to: “threat removed or restored “

    Which is confusing.

    I then clicked again on the “Action” button and only 1 option appeared which is “ Allowed” I mistakenly Clicked on. But then I removed it from the “ allow history “

    So my question:

    • does allowing a “ removed or restored” threat means releasing it again in the PC or it means only allowing the future similar threat?
    Because I run a scan after i removed it from allow history and nothing is detected.

    I’m very confused. I would appreciate help.

    My threat was : worm win32/bundpil. “Two letter “
