  1. Microsoft Defender says that I have a trojan but Malwarebytes says that by laptop is fine?


    Currently using Windows 10 on my laptop and Defender has scanned the device and given me a warning about a severe TrojanWin32/Skeeyah. Initially I pressed the take action button on Defender but that appeared to do nothing. After Defender had done nothing I installed the free version of malwarebytes but after installing it and running a scan it says that there are no threats. even after a full scan and offline scan through Defender it still will not take action after I select start actions. Any help on how I can remove this trojan or is it a false positive from Defender?

    :)

    what does Windows defender say?


    Most probably your computer has a Trojan. You may find which Trojan from the Windows Defender program. However removal of this is complicated.

    My best suggestion is to you is to back up your data to cloud and ask Microsoft store nearby to clean up your computer.

    Defender disabled by Malwarebytes?

    [Merged]

    Windows 10 accepts Malwarebytes as complete antivirus, and will not allow full Defender to work.

    Yet, according to many searches Malwarebytes is not considered to be a complete antivirus.

    I had to remove Malwarebytes from my laptop to get Defender to work fully.

    Any suggestions about how to use complete Defender while running Malwarebytes

    Windows Defender keeps saying I have a Trojan virus, but does nothing about it.

    Windows Defender keeps saying I have a Trojan virus, but does nothing about it. Could it be that the virus has even affected the windows defender and does not let it take the appropriate actions?
