I keep getting notifications from my antivirus about these 2 cases. they always come together and they happen approximately every 5 minutes. this started spontaneously about an hour ago. I have no idea what this is. is this something that just started happening with a recent update? is anyone else having this problem? is this a false positive?

I used all the appropriate malware detectors given in the link, rebooted the computer and then no more virus pop ups every 5 minutes.

Most likely there are leftover files that need to be removed. To find these, malware experts need to see the two diagnostic logs from FRST
