So few minutes ago I downloaded zip file which had trojan in it. Windows defender told me about that. So i thought everything was ok, until suddenly my taskbar disappeared. So I restarted my computer. Now windows is win defender showing me this ( pic below). What does it mean and what should I do now? Thanks for your answer in advance

Click on the action button shown on the bottom of your picture and remove or quarantine it. If defender does not remove it do a full system scan with it.

Go to C:\users\ej\downloads\ and delete openbullet.1.2.2.4.zip

Download and run Malwarebytes from HERE

If you need further help please read this and upload logs as requested
