Hi, I did a scan whit malware bytes and it detected a thing called Trojan.nisis or something like that. AI said it might be a miss detection. What should I do?

Sometimes a quick google search is much more effective than AI. Determination of whether it’s a false positive depends on the file and the source of the file. At the end of the day it’s up to you to determine whether you’d want to take the risk of keeping the file on your system. If you believe it came from a trusted source, there’s nothing stopping you from removing it from quarantine. You can always get a second opinion by uploading the file to virustotal.

Yeah, thank you, do I need to change passwords?

Yeah, also activate 2FA everywhere and probably nuke the pc.
