Windows 11 users are getting virus detected message on downloaded files

Dear Community,

I have 1 Domain in my environment with 4 sites in total.

We have workstations and laptops in our sites & we have configured updates to be downloaded directly from Microsoft through GPO.

All of a sudden, users have started to have this weird problem which is that the Files that they download in browser wether chrome or edged does not let them download it and gives message saying that the Virus Detected & then blocks it.

No matter where the user tries to save the file it does not work.

First, it started happening on one system, now it has spreaded to more systems.

Please tell me why is it happening.

We are using windows 11 on laptops and desktops & few systems with windows 10.

Please guide me how to resolve this Problem.

      As if anyone is going to open an unknown file when the question is about infections with a virus!
