Hello @ ,
Welcome to the Webroot Community!
I would advise rebooting the machine into Safe Mode with Networking, and then running another scan.
You can find instructions on booting into Safe Mode here.
Give this a shot and let me know if the threats were able to be removed successfully.

Hello @ ,
Welcome to the Webroot Community,
EDIT: Looks like@ has beat me to it. ;)
Are these active threats which Webroot can't remove? Because there is a place that shows threats removed, by reading this KB article here
If indeed Webroot isn't removing these threats,,,
Can you run a deep scan in Safe Mode with Networking the instructions on how to do so are shown below.
1. Start your computer in Safe Mode with Networking. For instructions on starting in Safe Mode with Networking
