I'm unsure if this is a false postive but virustotal said 2/72 that there was a trojan warning. I did 3 full scans of my pc with malwarebytes and windows defender and nothing happened is this a false postive? I first installed it from Microsoft store and was worried that was virus, when I installed creative cloud on my pc it opened the microsoft store one and also when I downloaded the file again and scanned it, it said trojan warning, same for each adobe app I installed. And when i was done downloading my monitor went zoom in snd everything was grey. Image is the reconstruction of it

Why does it mark it as it? I downloaded creative cloud from microsoft store the first time... i then downloaded it from http://adobe.com/home?acomLocale=ca.
microsoft store one safe yes?

Still worried tho. Someone is asking their friend who knows computure stuff and if they dont know then asking their cousin who is in IT department. The trojan warning worries me

I noticed that when I click on desktop apps I can open the creative cloud I got from the microsoft store. but when I scan the file for the software of creative cloud from adobe site it says trojan. why is this? is it mianly just false positive?

If directly from the Adobe site, it is a false positive.
Report it to your security software source.

Ok now that I look at it again it sounded weird. Ok but psd is photoshop file yes? I remember hearing that it can be an exe... like having psd.exe in it. Would that show for the file? Would it be flagged as a virus from sdobe since they check the files for viruses?

.psd is PhotoShopDocument. There would never be an .exe

I heard before tho it can have an exe. I scanned my pc btw nothing bad, i think i just have some sort of paranoia

maybe (paranoia).
you can image your pc so if you suspected a future infection, you can restore your pc.
