Ransomware detected on system
Hi, I’ve just joined the community. Glad to be here! I received the following last night and not sure what to make of it. I’m running Windows 10 with Bitdefender Total Security 2020.
It seems like Bitdefender protected me. I seem to be able to access my files, but I still feel uneasy. What should I do (if anything)? Thanks.

Hi, this gentleman, or a lady @QuiveringChi , hello
If Bitdefender located a potentially harmful or malicious file in the users device, it has most probably blocked it. Also, in this cases Bitdefender sends out a notification regarding the file and the path. To check for Notifications, open Bitdefender and go to Notifications panel in the left side menu. In there, expand the notification regarding to the Ransomware blocked and it will display the path and the feature that blocked it.
Bitdefender will also scan downloaded files by default, also, it is recommended that you do scans regularly to ensure that no threats are present in your device.
