Help, im new here and i have a virus!!

Hi, im new here and I have a question.
my windows defender found a trojan downloader 32/Renos.IO
The windows defender pops up every 30min asking if I want to quarentiene it or remove it. I remove it, but it keeps comming up. I searched the web for any information about removing it, but apparently to do anything, I have to know the file name. If you haven't already guessed, im not very computer savey. But I NEED HELP!!!

What Antivirus program are you using?
What spyware programs do you have installed?
If "none" is the answer to either...
then you need to go to Filehippo.com, and Get AVG or AntiVir, free Antivirus.
And Malwarebytes and Spybot or Adaware for Spyware scanning.
Windows Defender is a pretty weak, and often wrong, program to be using for security

I have AVG the free trial. I don't think I have anything else installed.
