Windows 10: I got threat alert RemoteAccess:MSIL/AsyncRAT.J!MTB on windows defender . But defender is...

I got threat alert on windows defender given on Image 1 virus name : RemoteAccess:MSIL/AsyncRAT.J!MTB. But defender is not able to remove it. Whenever I click on take action it just gives second image alert and does nothing. Also it keeps refreshing in current threat page every 5 min. So I need your help in below 2 questions. 1 Is it a dangerous threat should I reset my PC now ? 2 How to remove this threat from my PC ? Please help. Currently I have disconnected my PC from internet. Sorry for the bad images due to bad lighting.

What the hell, windows defender?

Yep, I agree with you on that one. If you have no anti-malware software installed and you've turned off Windows Defender you are a threat to the whole public Internet. This goes for not installing patches as well, if you haven't installed patches then your ISP should turn your Internet off until you have done so.

What the hell, windows defender?

So, a while back I disabled windows defender via gpedit. Come to find out it's running again, and telling me my miner is a "severe" threat, despite still being disabled in gpedit. There's a few new entries related to windows defender in gpedit that didn't used to be there before. I'm guessing this happened during the big spring update. UAC keeps becoming re-enabled somehow, as well. For now I have a shitty registry key that's supposed to disable windows defender instead, hopefully it works.

Damn, Microsoft. They were pushing users to upgrade to 10 so hard, even resorting to plain trickery to get it on as many machines as possible. Now not only is it doing hardcore data mining in the background, but it's changing settings all on its own to whatever Microsoft wants. One step closer to pushing me to Ubuntu or something. I'd already be there if I didn't think it would be an arduous task learning how to computer all over again while simultaneously breaking a lot of games, which is mostly what I use this computer for...

Bill Gates needs to go back to Microsoft just so he can kick all the guys responsible for w10 squarely in the nuts. /rant
