Item Adware/PUA in the quarantine list cannot be eliminated. "Authorize" action is the unique action avaiable. Tips? Is it a risk?

Juan ManuelMelendez

This item is always displayed after scanning. It seems not to be possible to eliminate / clean it from the machine.

    Hello Juan ManuelMelendez,

    you've omitted the details - name of the detection and path/filename so it's not possible to give specific advice. Adware/PUA is not necessarily malicious (please see Authorize in the How to remove ... article). The article has detailed instructions for dealing with these detections.

    Hi!

    Thank you very much for your answer.

    The file is: C:\ .... \Chrome\User Data\Default\File System\005\t\00\00000000\FILE:0000
    It seems the message can be ignored.

    Note from the article you send me: If the component detected ends with FILE:0000 or similar then the component was detected as it was attempting to run and will not exist on disk - you can therefore ignore all detected components that end like this.

    Thanks again for you help!
