Hi, I also have 2 Console Window Hosts running and I'm about 99% sure I'm not infected. You have nothing to worry about.

Right click on them and choose Properties. If it's running from the C:\Windows\system32 folder, then it's likely a normal legitimate program.

Edit: If you are not sure, you should do a full virus scan. I also recommend using the free [Malwarebytes 3] scanner, especially if your only scanner is Windows Defender.
