I’m not very skilled with computers so I could use some help, also I think I accidentally deleted this file on my backup hardrive because I was panicking, is this going to cause any trouble?
On my main hard drive, which is the one windows boots off of, I just put it in my virus chest.
Hi, join the club mate. I’ve done six scans since Dec 16th and found what I assume to be a false positive Win32:Malware-gen every time. I have put each one thru Virus Total and all have come back negative. Not being much of a techie I have gleaned from some other threads on this forum that this a known problem and will be corrected with next program update. I’m a bit peeved with Avast myself and have even considered going back to AVG after five years with Avast. I deleted the first one I found as suggested by Avast and had to restore my system because it was a drive. As I said I don’t know much about these things, but have learnt a little more now. So just leave it alone it comes back negative after sending to Virus Total and wait and see what comes with next program update.
