    Scan your computer with another antivirus program or a good online scanner, such as ESET.

    I scanned with Malwarebytes, it didn't detect anything, but as I wrote, the problem disappears for some time and then returns.

    Would an FRST scan help? I don't know much about it, but I see that many solutions involve using this program

    When I compile my own programs I sometimes get it, but 99% of the time it disappears after recompilation, i.e. a false alarm and probably still AI.

    Please post the FRST logs as an attachment, also give the location of this infection + file name, or check yourself on jotti/virustotal.

Topic summary

LABEL_AI_GENERATED
Windows Defender detected Wacatac.B!ml Trojan repeatedly, but removal did not stop the alert from returning. Suggested checks included scanning with another antivirus or online scanner such as ESET, using Malwarebytes, reading a removal guide, and running Farbar Recovery Scan Tool (FRST) with Scan and Addition logs attached. Later replies noted that similar detections can be false positives, especially after recompiling custom programs, and recommended posting FRST logs, the file location, and verifying the file on VirusTotal or Jotti.
