I have both an SDD and an HDD, should I scan them both? And the Wacatac Virus was found by the Windows Defender in the temp files

 

Sorry for my intrusion.

Did you run a scan with Emsisoft Emergency Toolkit maybe?

I'm asking 'cause I experienced the same issue.

If so, it is a False Positive detection, just an interference

Please see

I have used Emsisoft Emergency Toolkit, so that means that it is where the Wacatac comes from and its a false-positive in the side of Microsoft Defender? If that is true then that's good news, now I won't worry that much
