Moving a damaged file to trash

I can't get rid of this notification that popped up on my desktop. I click move to trash and comes back 2 seconds later. How can I remove it for good?

thanks

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.13

Please refer to this User Tip: About those "<app> will damage your computer" messages - Apple Community.


Even though its title and the wording of that message are different, the cause and its potential solution are likely to be the same.


Post those three screenshots if you need help. Instructions for doing that appear under "Expanded instructions for everyone".
