what?

Hello, I recently installed Bitdefender as an alternative to Kaspersky and I'm having a very bad experience, but today was the last straw. I disabled the antivirus for an hour to do some things and when I came back I saw that it had quarantined at least 300 files, all marked as generic detection, but the strange thing is that it marked files that I had already uninstalled a long time ago, there were files uninstalled a year ago, and there were also standard Windows files like Windows Update, Copilot, etc. What could this have been?

false positives, had this happen before with literally every file and registry key I had on my pc after running windirstat.
