Windows defender not removing the threat. Closed

Question

Hello,

When i try to delete/block/put in quarantine etc the threat detected by windows defender , it ends up doing nothing. Like if i never chose the option. And i do not know how to fix that , i have the  latest version of windows defender , restarted my device , did an offline scan , used sf /scannow on cmd , and when i used another antivirus scan it detected nothing. ( the threats are the following :  PUABundler:MemuPLlay32 , smthing like that. It's in 4x, cuz there are 4 threats with the same name. )

Windows / Opera 102.0.0.0

Hi,

The threat seems to be related to MemuPlay, a game emulator. Does the issue persist if you move it to quarantine, then empty the quarantine? If yes, I invite you to try with Malwarebytes.

Hello.
Check the date of the threat, it is very likely that it has been deleted but that it appears in the Windows Defender history. If the date has passed, it means that the detection is in the Windows Defender history and not a new detection.
