It is safe. It is Malicious Software Removal Tool
No one is saying it isn’t safe, just that it is of a low reputation, very few of the avast community have encountered this file. Not to mention that it is unsigned, if it were then there wouldn’t be this fuss.
Is it the Malicious Software Removal Tool, given that it is being downloaded by AdFender.exe
Probably is being downloaded with IE, but Avast sees it as AdFender since AdFender works as local proxy.
This is what it showed when I tried to install it.
I didn’t get that why would I, the notice came from Avast not Windows. I allowed it and it installed without any problems.
I didn’t get any notice from Avast.
Windows 10 updated fine, Win 7 system still searching for over 30 minutes. The problem is not fixed.
I have 3 Win7 SP1 laptops. They all have much the same software, with minor variations. One found all the updates within 10 minutes, another took 25 minutes, and the third was over an hour. All received 14 Microsoft updates yesterday.
Perhaps once Windows 10 is no longer offered free, Microsoft will remove this annoyance and fix MS Update properly.
Just installed another security update for flash player on my win 10 computer. Installed the same on Tues…
Yep.
Same thing here. I’d wager Adobe forgot something or other on Tuesday. 
My windows 7 computer showed 1 important update ready to be installed this morning and it was the upgrade to windows 10. I don’t want to upgrade on that computer so I hid the update.
How did you hide it ??? Better take a look here:

Well, Avast isn’t only software company to PUSH a reboot and install…grand old Microsoft too.
Two out of large group of W7 PCs was rebooted overnight with congrats on new 10 install.
This can happen with all the tweaking around of MS putting “recommended” and “optional” W10 items and if you have auto install selected you can get bit by the upgrade bug. 
I know you can revert but what saved our bacon is to just not accept the EULA and it backs out to W7 right then.
So, did a little searching and found this excellent util that kills the ability for W10 upgrade. https://www.grc.com/never10.htm
I’m not saying there are not machines you should not upgrade to W10…but I prefer new machines with clean W10 installs.
Like most software changes…especially older PCs…you may spend more time getting things to work with W10 than worth the benefits of W10.
Thus, there may be like me some PCs that are going to be W7 until they die.
Anyway, wanted to post the util.
I just right clicked on the update and hid it.
I don’t have that computer set to automatically download and install updates.
It took around 30 minutes to download and install 10 updates on Windows 7.
No problems with Avast.
I didn’t get a security update for flash player on my win 10 computer today.
KB3149135 Windows Update is smashing systems; disables ELAN pointer device driver; cannot uninstall KB w/o touchpad !
^^Someone over on MalwareTips Forums.
Is there a link? Did you get the update?
If there was one, it may have been included in the cumulative Windows 10 update.
