Check That the File FORScan.exe(The FORScan Application file) is actually present in the FORScan Program file(c:\Program FIles x86\FORScan)! If it is missing then likely Windows Defender/Security has quarantined the file as a virus!

This is a false virus alert and quarantine that FORScan has been trying to get Microsoft to address for quite some time(Unsuccessfully for quite some time)!

Open Windows Security (Shield Icon in the tray or open in "Settings, Windows update and security) to the "Protection History" and see if FORScan.exe is there! If it is set it to "allowed Threat" and reset the windows security to ignore this file!
