Windows defender keeps prompting me to remove this trojan. I
did it several time, but it keeps coming in. How do I get rid of it
for good.

Thanks

Try a disc cleanup to delete your temporary files and temporary internet
files. It may be that you have removed the trojan, but if it remains in the
temporary folder it will still show as resident.

Running Disk Cleanup as suggested by another poster will not solve
your issue. Go through these malware removal steps systematically,
doing all the preparatory work first:

It can solve the issue. I received a trojan which Avast stopped. It was
still in the temp files upon a scan though and came up as removable.
Deleting the temp files solved the problem and it was no longer on the
machine.

Then you were fortunate, but there is no way to know the true
malware-status of the OP's machine. Most malware resides in other
places on the hard drive in addition to the Temporary files. Therefore,
I stand by what I said - the OP should perform the normal scans for
malware in a systematic way.
