So do you have an antivirus program or you only using defender? emisoft & Malwarebytes don't replace antivirus, they just work along side it. You should try Bitdefender free and get a second opinion on its effectiveness

If you are sure the program is clean and are only using defender, try this: https/support.microsoft.com/en-us/instantanswers/64495205-6ddb-4da1-8534-1aeaf64c0af8/add-an-exclusion-to-windows-defender

Emsisoft IS an antimalware/anti virus with a firewall(Uses bitdeffenders engine and its own). I am also using malwarebytes premium with protects the system. I really done think it is infected by a glitch with the OS. Has this happen before?
