    Sketchy usb drive


    I used a sketchy USB drive that I thought was safe, when I plugged it in instead of the usb showing me the files it showed me a weird shortcut with its name, out of stupidity I ran it, windows caught it as a trojan "Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.H!ml" I asked windows defender to remove it, it says that it did. But after further investigation in the protection history it says that it affected this file "C:\Windows \System32\printui.dll" should I be concerned? I've noticed no changes on my computer after this event, it happened same day of posting this, before a 6-7 hours. I am sorry for the poor format

    :)
