Brand new computer out of the box, installed Malwarebytes within 1 hour and did scan and got info below. Not sure if I should have removed it.

1) is it Malware?

2)Where is there an explanation for the Bad: and Good: information?

I am not very computer savvy

Thanks

HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced|Start_ShowSearch (PUM.Hijack.StartMenu) -> Bad: (0) Good: (1) -> Quarantined and repaired successfully.

Registry settings such as this are not malware. It is a setting that *may* be potentially unwanted.

In short... Nothing to worry about.
