Hello,
choose “move to chest” looks the best option and then check the file path, which application belongs to, you can upload the file to http://www.virustotal.com and choose “rescan” if the file wa already uploaded there.
Create a folder called Suspect in the C:\ drive, e.g. C:\Suspect. Now exclude that folder in the Standard Shield, Customize, Advanced, Add, type (or copy and paste) C:\Suspect\* That will stop the standard shield scanning any file you put in that folder. You should now be able to export any file in the chest to this folder and upload it to VirusTotal without avast alerting.
If you think it’s false positive, you can send the file to virus@avast.com with “False positive” in subject.
