Microsoft has a safety scanner you can try

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/defender-endpoint/safety-scanner-download


Scan for "Malicious" software. Generally speaking this is software that is not considered a virus or trojan. It performs unwanted functions such as downloading newer advertisements or reporting what the users is looking to buy and offering alternative suggestions. Typically free games have these apps.
Type MRT in the windows search bar.

You can submit suspicious files or websites here
