Cannot remove threat Mal/obfJS-B

Hello

I received this error message Received message "The threat cannot be cleaned up. Please click the threat name above for manual cleanup instructions - Mal/obfJS-B" in my Quarantine Manager.

I am unable to access the Clean Up Threat button so I ran the Sophos Full Scan and it is still listed in the Quarantine Manager. Can someone tell me how to remove this file from my Mac Book please. Thanks

In the quarantine manager, find the path name to the file; it's possible you can just delete the file, or at least know where it's located on your time machine backup (if that's where it's located).

No, the system won't let us delete the file directly, either...

You will need to temporarily disable on-access scanning before trying to delete the file.
Where is the file located?
