Solved! i had a trojan and i downloaded malwarebytes and hitmanpro

[Shogunyanly]

so i was wondering why my startup is so slow and fps bad so i ran windows defender and found a trojan coinminer and it got deleted but after that in a few days i was curious and ran it and it found some infected or corupted files so i was just scared and nervous but i download malwarebytes and i scaned and it quarantine some things and deleted idk if steam_api.dll was safe or not but after that i was still wonder do i still have virus and i downloaded hitmanpro and scaned and it just scaned leftovers of my old antivirus (totalav) so i was wonder if you guys can tell me if my pc is safe of trojans or not

There is no 100% sure. if you don't want to do fresh install, then don't

your saying is you recemend os fresh install because there might still be malware but we just dont know

what i say is backup ur data as fast as u can. dont waste time. After backing up, install a fresh copy of windows. precaution is better than cure. And though ur pc wont have virus but whenever u feel lag or someething then u gonna doubt and get stressed over it. so better download new copy!
