Please pack the file into a password-protected ZIP or RAR and send it do virus@avast.com (stating the password in the e-mail body).
Thanks!

If it is indeed a false positive, add it to the exclusions lists (Standard Shield, Customize, Advanced and Program Settings, Exclusions) and periodically check it (scan it in the chest), there should still be a copy in the chest even though you restored it to the original location. When it is no longer detected then you can also remove it from the Standard Shield and Program Settings, exclusions.

I did it,but no any answer until now!?
@DavidR: Thanks for your tip.

Do you mean that the file is still detected as being infected?
Shame of avast speed for correction this false positive :stuck_out_tongue:

You will not get any answer from the avast-team (if that is what you mean)

But hopefully they will correct this false positive really soon.
