Webroot failed to automatically remove a Registration.exe threat on my Dell Windows 11 PC. Is this a serious threat? Any suggestions on how to remove it?

Hello
Please contact Webroot Support and they will sort it out for you because the name means nothing to us as we would need the MD5 hash file from a Webroot Scan Log to check.

+63If you save a Scan Log look near the bottom for the lines that show the detection and post them.

While online with tech support, I noticed that the Registration.exe file was reported as residing on my DVD-ROM drive, and that it infected a Windows file. I removed the disc from the drive, tech support ran Webroot again, and this time, the threat was removed.
