Aura Posted June 16, 2018 ID:1250676 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Hi Jeemag It's a renamed FRST executable. If you add "English" in the name, the logs will be translated to English instead of your system's default language. You might have downloaded FRST at some point when asking for support on the forums.
