Virustotal says it is fine
Once Avast blocks the file, what steps should be taken to recover it, if Virustotal found no threat in that file?
Is creating an exception a good option? Thanks
What does avast say when detecting ?
Post link to VirusTotal scan result
It says:
Threat blocked
We´ve blocked the threat dmclient.exe from harming your computer
What would you like to do?
Move to virus chest or Create exception
Threat name IDP.Generic
Process C\Windows\System32\dmclient.exe
Detected by Behavior Shield
Should I click one of the two options offered, or just dismiss it completely? Thanks
Hi Android656,
The file is an official Windows 10 executable or worse malware that poses as an official Windows 10 executable.
Errors with dmclient.exe are sometimes related to registry issues.
Do not try to download dmclient.exe from other sources as they are not the official Windows developed executables.
What you could do is to provide us with logs and wait for a qualified malware remover to look into the matter
and eventually help you out with this problem - Re: https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=194892.0
