Windows 10: Powershell Popup

Recently I’ve been having a windows message pop up saying Powershell v1.0 wants to run on my laptop and I currently have windows in the S mode. I try to run a scan with windows security under “virus & threat protection” but I can’t find the scan button and nothing is being flagged as malware. I use this laptop only for schoolwork. How should I go about solving this problem?

a go.

And I would start with Step 4, resetting your browser
