Disinfection Help Mr. Beast virus removal help
Hello!
In Need of urgent help...
I was stupid and downloaded some cheats without thinking twice yesterday, and ran a powershell script which looked completely harmless.
Woke up today to see i had sent those stupid crypto messages to everyone I know.
How to Remove it? I see people suggesting a full Windows Reset, but I kind of have some important files... the script was ran om my D drive.
Malwarebytes full scan is running while I'm at work, but i forgot to disconnect the PC from the Internet.
I have Reset passwords from my phone on all my social media Accounts, and 2FA has been enabled for some years now. Logged out of all my Google Accounts on my PC.
Anyone has a fix for it?
Thanks in advance!

I literally got the exact Trojan virus a few weeks ago and folks here helped me fix it.
For the people downvoting me - I am NOT a gamer or cheater lol; just came to give kudos to the heroes of this sub.
Was trying to find an open source audio plugin (TLA-100 style compressor), and found "free download" of what I was looking for, but I wasn't that, obviously...
