Do I really need to reset my PC after removing the viruses

Had one of those MrBeast Crypto malware. Ran windows defender which did not detect the file. subsequently installed hitmanpro and Malwarebytes and those software picked up the file. The file was then subsequently removed.

Many of the guides here suggests reinstalling Windows but I am wondering if it's necessary after locating the file and deleting it?
