How can I get rid of hidden virus.

I know this might not be the platform for this but pls I will like ur opinion or help, thanks.

I suffered from a virus (it attacks .exe files by duplicating them and putting a g or v before the application ( gFIFA 19) and it remains hidden until it has totally corrupted the .exe file b4 it can be detected) which couldn't be detected by my Quick heal or McAfee antivirus and the best solution I got was from Malwarebytes which was able to detect the virus (virus.Renamer.VirRenam1) and quarantined and deleted or so I thought. Recently after installing Razer Cortex, I discovered the corrupted exe file is still present but it's hidden, and the virus can also be seen in if the folder is compressed. I hv tried using CMD to search for the virus but I can't still see it ( I hv used 3 antivirus softwares as described)
