Please, verify the error number.
If you can, it might be useful to open the System event log, go to View,
choose Filter, and set the Source dropdown control to "WinDefend" and see
whether there are events in that log that you can relate to this
issue.--perhaps ones which name the folder or file driver involved.
If you find anything enlightening, using the cut and paste button to paste

I'm guessing, but I would imagine the detections are either in an archive
file (zip type compressed file) which Defender doesn't remove, since such
files could contain other wanted/needed information, or they are in a restore
folder which also isn't touched by Defender, or they are in a quarantine
fºlder.
All occurrences are harmless in that state but could cause a problem if
uncompressed or restºred.
You should see what files are involved by examining the system event lºg:
Do a start, run, eventvwr.msc, **click OK**, then click ºn
**System**, then View, then Filter, and scroll down the " event sºurce"
control to reach Windefend, that will give you a view of just Windows
Defender-related events.
Look for events with yellow triªngles
Then make a decision as to either deleting/ignoring/manually cleaning them
or in the other case emptying your restore folder and creating a new restore
point as described in these fºrums.
