[Ciobi1789]

Hey guys
I might have downloaded and tried to install a malware msi afterburner and now am thinking about reinstalling my windows.
I just did so 2 days ago and wanted to install my msi afterburner.
So i go on google type msi afterburner click on the first site download it and procede to click on the exe file.
There might've been some red flags but i was on auto mode so nothing really jumped my eyes.
I want your opinions guys is this a malware?

I would do a reinstall if it was my computer.
Run Malware bytes first if you have more than one hard drive/ssd/m.2. let it clean anything it finds.
Shut down and disconnect everything but boot/windows drive and reinstall windows from a clean Windows 10 usb install media.
