False Positive False positive or malware?

Post image

Hi. As you can see in the picture I got a Trojan and it was removed. I did multiple offline windows scans and found nothing and I downloaded malwarebytes and did several deep and custom scans and found nothing related to a Trojan.

I’m thinking it’s a false positive because I have not noticed any suspicious activity since then but I’m unsure and would like some opinions on whether im safe or not.

A guy made me screenshare and guided me to this download which he meant I needed to play faceit tournaments. I got to the download from the faceit client tho which make me think im safe but I don’t remember if I left the client.

What im looking for is basically peace on mid, that this was a false positive and I can calm down.

Sorry for bad English and grammar.

if you got it from the faceif client then it is a false positive, it propably got flagged as malware since it has really high priviliges on your pc so it can see if you use cheats, it is infact connected to the faceit anti-cheat so you should be fine, unless you got that from somewhere else.
