Recurring warning of Trojan in OnedriveTemp

Win32:Malware-gen

AVG keeps reporting that it has secured a threat and moved the files to quarantine because it is infected by Win32:Malware-gen. However the error still keeps popping up. and doing a boot scan and a deep scan does not cure the problem - How do I completely remove this threat ?

Thank you, Clive.
Could you navigate to the location of the file in question to check if it is present there?
If it is, please delete it manually and restart your PC.
