I was worried that my Windows 10 machine was compromised and ran Norton Power Eraser.

It suggested that miktex-texworks.exe was a virus (see attachment).

Are there issues with TexWork and should I take up the suggestion to remove?

Not unusual. I'm experiencing the same with Norton Symantec Endpoint Protection. This is an overreaction of the product as it attacks almost everything. Thus, the Norton stuff behaves itself like a virus. So, there are no issues with TexWorks and I wouldn't recommend to remove it. If you have possibility to edit the Whitelist of the power eraser then do it and it will hopefully leave in peace.
