The file reputation warnings...
« on: August 17, 2016, 12:09:37 PM »
I keep getting the reputation warning about "PulseUninstaller.exe", though I don't actually know what it is.

I tried googling the file but none of the links ever mention the file reputation warning with avast.

I've gotten the recommendation to abort the connection and remove the file from my computer, but I don't know if I really should delete this file since it seems like it has something to do with the fact that I use a Dell Laptop.

Should I let the file download or not?

The file name I have is different ("Uninstaller", not "uninstall")

Submit the file to VirusTotal and see what it says.
Most likely it is just a warning because not many avast users have downloaded/are using it.
