Virus remained after wiping PC.

Hi all.

Over a week ago, I posted about some questions that I had about a virus called “Expiro.DD!MTB”.

I thought that I had gotten rid of the virus after wiping my pc but it’s still there? (At least I think it’s the same virus).

I’m 90% sure that I didn’t get this from suspicious downloads because my new installation of windows was very sluggish and a few features weren’t working even before I downloaded any programs. Plus, the two programs that I did download was from legit websites (Brave and bit defender)

Did this happen because I reinstalled windows locally? (I couldn’t do a cloud reinstall) Should I do a clean reinstall from an usb instead?
