I found this in my virus protector Quarantine file. Gen:Variant.Razy.324315 Found in C:/program files(x86)/reallusion/iclone 3dx
Is this a problem? Should I restore it, or get rid of it?

it's a false positive.
Gen:Variant.Razy.324315 is apparently a bitcoin mining malware program.
Bitcoin mining software use video card gpu to do cryptocurrency mining.
I can see how Iclone / 3DX being a graphic software would generate a false flag, especially since 3DXchange communicates with iclone directly - which could be another reason to generate a false flag on hyper / aggressive anti virus software.
either that, or a brilliant approach to make a cg software that quietly mines bitcoins lol.
But that is not the case as other popular anti-viruses do not flag 3DX, - some have tho, I believe roguekiller, avast and bitdefender also false flagged it in the past.
one approach is to send the file the program is flagging to the anti-virus developers and let them analyze it so they can whitelist it to prevent further false positives.

Thank you, I've erased it from the quarantine.

As PSD has already mentioned, it is a false positive. 3DXchange has been fully tested and is perfectly safe to use. :)
