Can't Find Chest
« on: February 27, 2014, 01:50:48 PM »
Avast! Free decided that it didn't like a long-time file on my system and was so kind as to put it in the Chest. But it's not malware and I need it. I can't find access to the Chest to restore it. How do I do that?

If you feel it isn't malware, you don't say what the file name, location or malware name was given by avast ?

You should confirm that it isn't malicious (using https://www.virustotal.com/) and submit it to the avast labs (from the chest) if it is only avast detecting it, so that signatures can be corrected for all users.
