Windows 10: How do I delete threats found ?

I received a notification that Microsoft Security had identified threats so I opened up the protection history which showed "Threat found - action needed" and "Severe" at the top of a list of theats the rest of which have been blocked or quarantined, see attached screenshot.BTW the threat the system has identified is listed as Trojan:Script/Foretype.A!ml I am getting frequent alerts that a threat has been found and I then open the dialog box and click on "Start Actions" but nothing seems to happen.

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.
