virus, trojan, malware

[sgt mac]

My basement computer has one or more of the above subject matter.

Adware identifies it as fsrrecc.sys. It says it will remove it one the next
boot but it does not.

I loaded Windows Defender with updates but it does not detect it.

Any suggestions?

Sorry, I failed to mention that the file is in my windows\system32 directory
and my system32 directory is not visable. I was going to delete it from there
but the directory does not show up.

Further suggestions are welcome.
