Of course, if possible, you can upload the infected file:

Suggest you try to perform a clean installation and backup your data, otherwise you could spent a lot of time to rescue your OS....

Little_Joe Hi
I do not understand why after one warning , which was caused by the process of updating the test version - do you recommend performing a clean installation that will remove everything?
I think this is an exaggeration!

nope, just like you said it was a recommendation of solution to solve the problem. And more than that it is a simple quick fix... Considering we don't have the full detail of the info with that copy came from. But you if you think you want to tackle down all of the virus with other issues it brought then go for it.

Little_Joe The virtual machine was originally installed from https://aka.ms/wipiso for build 22499, and was upgraded through Windows Update and more https://aka.ms/wipiso ISOs until 22598, and now Windows Update is attempting to install 22610.
