Rootkit MBR zegost H found and located but no action taken

My system got infected by MBRzegost rootkit and I had to factory reset and reinstalled the windows, then installed bit defender and ran a full scan that detected 1 threat found under the name of Rootkit.MBR.Zegost.H(boot image) with no action taken. So I started Rescue Environment which detected the rootkit and located it but it is a zip file with PASSWORD PROTECTION.. So I desperately tried random numbers to unlock it but it didn't and bitdefender completed its scan saying that my device is clean with 1 unscanned file dt password protection.

I run Windows 11 which i updated after resetting my computer. My bitdefender is updated and now I am on my 30 days free trial. I also tried several other rootkit removers but all failed to even detect it. I tried the Microsoft offline scan but same thing didn't detect it. I tried to go manually to rootkit location and use any tool to know its password but of course it gave me unable to access. If anyone helps me please.
