As mention Avast on Virustotal first failed to detect files in packed archive.

After unpacking file is Avast on VirusTotal able to detect it.

However your desktop version for Windows 10. Latest build & signature as of today is not detecting whether it is zip or extracted!.

This is the file sample link. http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=88819775121217819397

I have already submitted the sample to avast lab.

Please advise if Avast will fix this issue.

After posting this post. And submitting sample, Avast desktop is now capable of detecting said sample.

Could the admin advise why there is a delay in detection if Virustotal engine and other vendor has previously detected this sample previously.

Even malwarebytes detected it previously.
