Installing antivirus software can help detect and remove a virus already on your computer, but it may not guarantee a complete fix. The effectiveness depends on the software's capabilities and the specific virus present. It's also important to run a full system scan after installation and follow any prompts to quarantine or delete infected files. In some cases, additional steps, such as restoring from a backup or reinstalling the operating system, may be necessary for complete resolution.
