HOW TO REMOVE VIRUS

 


1️⃣ Open the Windows Security panel. To open it, press the Windows key on your keyboard, type security, and click Windows Security in the search results.[1]

Windows 10 comes with Microsoft Defender, which is a full-featured antivirus/antimalware suite designed to protect your PC from viruses in real-time. As long as you keep Microsoft Defender running, it will catch most viruses and malware before they can be installed on your PC.

If you have any other apps open on your PC, you should close them now.



2️⃣ Click Virus & threat protection. It's in the left panel.



3️⃣ Click Scan options



4️⃣Select Microsoft Defender Offline scan. It's the final option in the list. This option is the most reliable for finding and removing viruses and requires you to restart your computer.



5️⃣Click Scan now. This reboots your PC into a safer offline mode so it can fully scan for viruses and malware.[2] The scan will take about 15 minutes and your PC will automatically restart when finished. If viruses or malware are found, Defender will immediately remove them.



6️⃣ Re-open Windows Security and select Virus & threat protection. You'll want to do this as soon as your PC restarts after the scan.



7️⃣ Click Protection history to view the results. If any viruses or malware were found during the scan, you'll see the actions taken by Microsoft Defender.
