Windows 10: I got a report of a hacktool in my system

Following an eset system scan, I got a report about the file "1c342.msi".*variante de Win32/NSSM.M application potentiellement dangereuse = variant of Win32/NSSM.M potentially dangerous applicationI then uploaded it to Virus Total and got a report from 2 vendors that it is a Hack tool.Is it one? Windows security didn't detect it when I scanned my PC. Should I remove it using eset?

"HackTool"

Empty temporary internet files, restart the computer, manually update Defender so you'll have the latest definitions and run a Quick Scan.

See https://malwaretips.com/blogs/remove-hacktool-win32-keygen-virus/ Note the suggestion to send a copy of the file if necessary
to VirusTotal for analysis and that you may need to reset your browsers.



Other scanners that may help with this issue are listed in List
of Malware Removal Tools

Incorrect System Report

Thank you for your suggestion.

I have run the Windows Memory Diagnostic and the report indicated that no memory problems were detected. Status remains the same - 2GB of RAM instead of 6GB.

I do not have any obvious performance issues on this system. I have another Windows 10 installation on a secondary laptop and the system specs are reported accurately on that installation.
