I have a HP VICTUS, before some days i connected it with a external hard disk after that Windows defender is showing threats detected as "HackTool:BAT/AutoKMS!MSR" but I am able to remove the treat with windows defender as well as from malwarebytes, if i go to the location where it's showing the threat there is nothing like threat there in fact there is no file related to it at the shown location.
Please tell me what to do it's causing my laptop to work slow.
