    This item showed up on a scan, i tried to have HitmanPro remove it and also Quarantine it, but it shows up again the next day.
    Maybe it is because i am using the 30 day free trial of HitmanPro?

    Anyway, what should i do about this problem? Thanks for any help!



    Item: WdDevFlt.sys
    Location C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Platform\4.18.2102.3-0\Drivers
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\wd

    I'd say it's a false positive as those are the location and name of the Windows Defender device filter driver.
    If in doubt, upload them to VirusTotal.
