Windows 10: winrmsrv.exe trojan... can hardly find any information about this, need help desperately

hi, i've posted on various subreddits about this to no avail, so i suppose i'll try my luck here again:

recently, i seem to have contracted a virus that disabled windows defender and windows update, however, i managed to get those working, and eventually just performed a "reset" of windows (not with USB). so far, the coast seems clear, but i'm afraid things may still be bad, despite all the scans i've done. i have another post from earlier, but can someone PLEASE clarify what the hell is exactly going on? i can hardly find any information about this, and all the information i have found has been quite recent. should i just perform a complete and total reinstall via usb? how the hell would i do that? would it be effective in removing the virus? is it already gone? i don't even know what the hell is going on anymore. i don't even know if it's safe to use the documents and files and photos that i've backed up on google drive.

sorry about all these posts. thank you, if you do read this and offer any help/your experience.

C# EXE and MSI considered as trojan by Windows Defender on Windows 10

Hi,

I developed a C# exe and a service (Windows Service). Few Windows 10 machines flag that as having Trojan Win32\Critet.BS. Which is false positive. Is there a way to report that to Microsoft and know what
might be causing it.

Reason is for a user seeing this warning by Defender is scary. Any link/tutorial or suggestions will be helpful

 

Windows Defender detects an .exe as Win32/Bitrep.A Trojan?

OK, I had this software(earlier version) on another computer and never had it detected as a Trojan. I tried installing the latest version of this software on my new computer and it got detected as "Win32/Bitrep.A" Trojan after about a week of being installed
and Windows Defender deleted it. I tried re-downloading and then scanned the installation exe with Windows Defender and it detected it as the same Trojan. I then tried re-downloading again and Windows Defender deleted it as soon as it finished downloading.
The earlier version installation exe wasn't detected as a Trojan. I also tried a update exe to the software that wasn't the same version and nothing was detected. It seems to be with this certain version of the software or the update to this version. The developer
recommended installing the free version of Avast. Once installed, I scanned the installation exe with Avast and nothing was detected. Is there a Trojan with the software? According to Windows Defender there is. According to Avast there isn't.
