Whilst this beta has just been updated I got this issue prior to the update.
I had been notified of the new program update (my settings are to Ask) I opened the UI and noticed the number '1' over the notifications bell. Opening the notifications it showed the Smart Scan found some issues and this wasn't an old notification (Apr 28th, 4:18 pm, today) it happened very close to the boot on this XP system.
I had neither run a smart scan nor had I scheduled it, looking at the scan history, this scan never took place, so we still have some ghosts in the system.
I have just updated to 17.4.2294 and rebooted so I will have to see if these ghosts have been laid to rest.
