Today I was having trouble with Dashlane password manager, pretty much the first time in 3 years. After force closing the process and rebooting twice I decided to uninstall and reinstall through Windows Add or Remove programs. I received an alert for malware ransomware and quarantine during the uninstall. I was not able to view the file or the path entirely and I emptied the quarantine and rebooted after trying unsuccessfully to figure it out. It was a temporary file.
Could this be because Dashlane had to decrypt or encrypt some aspect of my passwords during the uninstall? I did not choose the option to remove/destroy my passwords/data as I was reinstalling. I ran malwarebytes upon rebooting and reinstalled Dashlane and haven't had any alerts since 12 hours ago and also Dashlane is no longer hanging.
