Because the Virus itself is a "child" of an harmless "parent" file which the AntiVirus can't recognize.

when the AV cleans the "child" the "parent" just recreates it.

you need to manually locate and clean the "parent" file and remove it before or with the "child" virus.

Does formating your computer get rid of viruses?

Formatting your computer's hard drive deletes all files on the drive. While it does get rid of viruses, it also gets rid of every other kind of file, including files you may want to keep (like pictures and documents). For that reason, formatting a computer's hard disk and reinstalling the operating system is generally considered a last resort, when viruses cannot be removed by other means.
