    MSRT reports 1 infected file, yet no harmful software found

    MSRT (Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool) while scanning reports it found 1 infected file. Yet, once the program is finished scanning, it reports "no harmful software found". Unfortunately there does not seem te be a way to find which file
    is exactly reported as "infected". Is there a need to further investigate this? And if so how to go about it?

    The background of my question is following: I found an entry "FU" in the start-up programs in Task Manager, and I suspect it may be (related to) a virus. I did a complete scan with Windows Defender and with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, and both reported no
    infections found.

    MSRT reports 33 infected files then scans and reports "No malicious software detected"

    Guys, i was just paranoid about my computer after it perform strangely. i run a microsoft malware removal tool and it counts there is 33 infected files in my computer. Its a full run scan as well. After the scan it shows No malicious software is detected.
    This is so confusing. so it is telling me that it detected infected files but in the end it says non was detected? Please help me,someone, I do not know what to do now before this i have contact a tech and he basically did nothing much to help me. Is there
    any other tech that is willing to take on my case? Any public suggestions will help. Thanks
