Threat Secured
« on: June 16, 2022, 11:17:14 PM »
Hi,

I keep getting the attached Threat Secured message. But when I go to that file and scan it manually with Avast, it's says "No Issues Found". Shall I just go ahead and create an exception?

Thanks.

Test the file at VT (https://www.virustotal.com) and post the link to the result here.

Thank you.

Here we go:

Strange that Avast doesn't detect this on your VT link.  T

Do you still get this avast alert  ?
If so please post another screenshot, but ensure that you select the See details option, it will give more information (e.g. what initiated it).

This file without the [number] would appear to be a Windows file (though would need to be validated), possibly being misused by another function/file.

Hi,

Thank you again.

I haven't gotten this alert yet today. If I get another alert, I'll post the screenshot with more details.

Cheers.
