Recalcitrant virus
Icon in the Windows security taskbar – (no action required), I open Windows Security, I have the page (Security at a glance), the icon (Virus & threat protection) in green – (no action required), click on this icon, I see (current threats, detected threats) – take action as recommended.
"same result with delete and quarantine"
Click to take action
the quick scan executed, presence of the same virus
I tried to delete it using several methods found on the web, nothing works
What to do please

Hello,
The issue is related to driver hub, which is blacklisted because it is likely to install unwanted additional software (PUP).
More broadly speaking, it pertains to the installation of driver hub and the unwanted software from HP besides the drivers themselves, which are all useless.

The Windows Defender alert is an old alert from June 11, what you're seeing is the history of Windows Defender alerts, not a new alert.
This alert concerned an executable file you had downloaded named driver_hub__install_28.exe which was located in the downloads folder; it was deleted by Windows Defender. This file contained a PUP, nothing serious.

Since the file has been deleted, it doesn't really matter that this alert is in Windows Defender's history; it's a bit like your browser's history, it allows you to see what has been done. It's just for informational purposes, nothing more. But if you wish to delete this past alert, you need to delete the history of Windows Defender, but honestly, I don't see the point.
