    Security Threats Under Virus & threat protection and Protection History

    Hi, I'm Robinson, and I’m happy to help you today.

    This could be a problem in the Windows Defender protection history when a threat is already removed and keep showing the alert. Clearing the Windows Defender history should fix this problem.

    Step 1:

    1-Right-click on Start and click on Run

    2-Type: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Scans\History and click on OK

    3-Open the Service folder, select all files inside it and delete them

    4-Close the file explorer

    Step 2:

    1-Click on Start, search for Windows Security, and click on that

    2-Click on Virus & Threat protection then click on Manage settings

    3-Toggle the button to Off and then to On again, for Real-Time protection and Cloud-delivered protection

    Then perform a Windows Defender offline scan, you can see how to do it at this link.
