IDP.Generic

Just finished doing windows updates, restarted computer received a virus warning.

IDP.Generic C:|Windows\System32\spool\drivers\x64\3\old\1.

It was sent to the virus Vault. Have sent file of via chest to be analysed.

Maybe a false positive. Did a full scan 5 days ago.? ???

Edit: Extracted file to a folder on a old usb scanned with Avast clean.

Then scanned file via Virus total all clean.

My wife just finished doing windows updates, got exactly same as what i got.

Both are dell desktops

Then scanned file via Virus total all clean.

If you look at top right corner of your VirusTotal scan you will see that result is two days old Always refresh for a fresh result, things may change in two days ;)

When posting VT scan always post link to scan result.
There is lots of ekstra info there we cant see from a screenshot

Received a reply from Avast Support. File has been whitelisted.

It is a false positive
