i made a full scan on my system today and found an trojan named Trojan:JS/FakeUpdate.HNAP!MTB and the windows defender showed a path to the obs browser files Home-PC\AppData\Roaming\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\Cache\Cache_Data\f_000006 does anyone know about this and why its there and if its a serious problem?
i havent downloaded anything or something like that i was just streaming idk maybe the obs team knows about this.

bump, I just got something similar today. Windows Defender detected Trojan:Script/Obfuse!MSR with the file path: C:\Users\myName\AppData\Roaming\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies\Cache\Cache_Data\f_000006
I just started using OBS again after a few months, no new plugins or downloads. It has been removed, but I'm wondering if OBS is compromised or is this a false flag from Windows.

These are cached assets from pages you have added to a Browser Source. It's almost certainly a false positive, but if not, one of the sites you entered into your browser source was likely infected with malware.

These kind of malwares try to trick you into downloading malicious software by presenting fake update or security notifications. As OBS is not a fully featured browser and does not allow interaction with the page by default, it's very unlikely this would cause issues.
