    I ran a full scan with Microsoft Defender on my PC and it found the unique file AppData\Roaming\secure\QtWebKit4.dll (Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.C!ml).

    But before using Defender, I had run a full scan with Malwarebytes Free and Kaspersky Free and found nothing. Why did it detect this now?

    Is this type of malware the kind that modifies, deletes, or corrupts personal files on the PC Windows 10?

    .
    Antiviruses are not identical, there are differences between them, including how they detect certain files.
    It is also possible that the other software was not fully up to date, so this file was not in their database.

    >>21715767 My question now is whether this file is actually malware or a false positive.
    What is the real name and type of malware?
    And does it modify, delete, or corrupt my personal files on my PC?

    I performed a full scan with Kaspersky Free, Malwarebytes Free, and AdwCleaner a week or two ago with the software’s updated definitions database, but only Microsoft Defender found AppData\Roaming\secure\QtWebKit4.dll (Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.C!ml)

    i posted virus total result sca above

    @gamemaniaco1987 posted by a user who is paranoid about disk degaussing and a couple of identical topics each. I'm guessing this is your other account am I right? You just forgot to log in....

    Someone who writes the same thing on a dozen forums is even worse than a troll, he just wastes the time of the mass of people.
