RAT means "Remote Access Trojan". It gives an outside third party full access to your PC, like they were sitting in front of it, basically.

Personally, I wouldn't trust that system unless you do a full system reformat and restore. Completely wipe the drive and install your OS again from scratch. You're not done yet though. Your accounts are also compromised, because you won't know how much data the bad guy got, and you must assume they got everything. This means changing every single password you have for every single log on. Deauthorize any authorized devices. Enable 2FA on everything. Cancel your credit/debit cards and get new ones reissued. You might also want to look into a credit freeze and/or credit monitoring, as they might have gotten enough to do some identity theft shenanigans.
