Our webroot Secure Anywhere on an HP laptop running Windows 10 22H2 displays a warning message either upon restart or sometimes during normal operation of the laptop. Running a scan turns the icon Green. Here is the information as listed in the scan log. Does anyone have more information about this suspicious script detection and what should be the remediation I should perform to remove this from the laptop?

Hi @PantherPC 

 

I would contact support so they can assist. Powershell is built into windows and legitimate, but malware authors will abuse it for malicious behavior. It’s best to have an agent look at logs from your system.
