Hello @light_hse and Welcome to the Webroot Community!

That's great to hear! Can you do me a favour a Save a Scan Log and post the lines that show the infection near the bottom of the Log please? Here on how to Save a Scan Log: https://docs.webroot.com/us/en/home/wsa_pc_userguide/wsa_pc_userguide.htm#UsingReportsAndViewers/SavingScanLogs.htm%3FTocPath%3DUsing%2520Reports%2520and%2520Viewers%7C_____1

Thanks,
