virus chest will not allow me to delete file
« on: March 08, 2017, 11:14:56 PM »
For months I've use Fidelity Trader Pro. Today a pop up appeared when I launched it and I picked the wrong solution.  I discover the Virus Chest and click on various available options but the bottom line the file is stuck there.  I can't delete, or  restore it.  I tried to delete the Fidelity Pro program  and when I reinstalled it, NOGO.  Can somebody give my a clue.

yes, I tried several time to restore it, delete it, .... Pushed all the possible buttons...... no joy. rebooted the computer before and after I deleted the Fidelity Pro program, same result. Only thing I have not doe is to delete the Avast program and see if that works.

Disable the behavior shield and see if it works to install and use the tool.
