Remove Win 32/Presenoker

Hi

My Windows Defender had detected Win 32/Presenoker in Torch browser. Though the app has been uninstalled, Defender continues to identify the presence of Win 32/Presenoker. The defender directs me to a file path and point to a file TourchSetup.exe that does
not exist. I tried running Malwarebytes but it did not identify presence of any PUA file. On searching through me internet, I notice that many users had same problem and they had to delete certain registry entry to get rid of the same. Can someone suggest
me how to remove the presence of Win 32/Presenoker from my system.

I use Windows 10 Home Version 2004

Sounds like the malware problem has been handled.

Suggest you see Redirecting which
might address the issue you are seeing.

GlenProuty identified and provided a work-around for this issue in June but we have not heard
when Microsoft is going to fix it.

PRESENOKER

Hi! I think I have a virus on my computer. Windows Defender keeps saying it's a threat to my system. I've checked in the internet and most posts says it's quite dangerous. I might have gotten it from uTorrent but I am really not sure. Should I be worried?

The instructions I'm planning to follow is this:
