Avast recommends opening it in the sandbox, which I have done. Why has Avast just started recognizing this file, when it has been on my computer forever and seems to be a valid Microsoft file (one Google response says be wary if found in Windows/System). It’s a pain in the nose to slow down my startup procedure with this event, and I’d like to clear it. How?
I have XP SP3 with auto update, so my Windows files should be current. I did a search for ‘netfxupdate.exe’ on this forum, but could find no other instances of this being mentioned on here.
