Hello emiliovstheworld, and Welcome.
What makes you sure that particular file is a threat in itself, as I can't find reference to it being described as such?
It is part of the Magix Video software (example: http://systemexplorer.net/file-database/file/videodeluxe-exe
However, I see that it is probably an Ad-supported software, so you may have installed something unwanted with it, perhaps a PUA (Potentially Unwanted Application).
What problems are you seeing? Try to uninstall Magix, and check if you have any unexpected toolbars or similar.
If you continue to see problems, and feel you could be infected, then please contact support, who'll clear it up: Submit a Support Ticket
Please feel free to ask for any further advice here.

Hi emiliovstheworld
Welcome to the Community Forums.
Dermot is quite correct but alternatively, is you feel technically more capable tand for those that are not detected by WSA, please see this KB Article. It has some easy to follow directions on locating and removing PUA's. You may also want to submit a Trouble Ticket, especially if you cannot remove it easily from the directions in the KB Article.
For those that ARE detected by WSA, but cannot be removed automatically, you can submit a Trouble Ticket. Webroot Support will help you get these annoying 'crapware' off your computer at no extra charge, and the additional examples may help to better automatic removal of that particular PUA for all users in the future.
To make sure that your WSA is checking for PUA's with the best proficiently, it sometimes helps to reset the PUA detection within WSA's settings. For PUA's that had previously been scanned and determined to be OK, but have since been added to detection/removal, you may want to complete the following steps:
I hope this helps you both understand, and resolve the problem and if not please let us know!
