ikrananka Posted July 3, 2020 ID:1391971 Share Posted July 3, 2020 I just upgraded IOBit Uninstaller to v9.6. During the installation I kept getting a Malware.Generic false positive for the setup.exe that was unpacked to a temporary directory. Turning off Malwarebytes I got the program installed, but now it is flagging the automatic updater program, "AUpdate.exe" in IOBit Uninstaller's installation folder, as also being Malware.Generic. None of these detections occurred with the prior version of IOBit Uninstaller Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinHeadedEagle Posted July 3, 2020 ID:1391972 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Hi, Can you zip and upload this folder as ZIP archive in your next reply? C:\ProgramData\Malwarebytes\MBAMService\ScanResults Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwinHeadedEagle Posted July 3, 2020 ID:1392032 Share Posted July 3, 2020 There was an update within MalwareBytes to mitigate this false positive issue. Make sure you have 4.1.2 installed. None of the reports show a detection. When did it occur? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikrananka Posted July 3, 2020 Author ID:1392043 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Updated to 4.1.2. The false positive and quarantine with AUpdate.exe still happens. This occurs when opeing the IOBit Uninstaller program and not from a Malwarebytes scan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinHeadedEagle Posted July 3, 2020 ID:1392062 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Thank you, now it should be fixed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikrananka Posted July 4, 2020 Author ID:1392130 Share Posted July 4, 2020 That did it. However, the setup.exe that the installation routine extracts to a temporary folder is still detected as a false positive. Here's my latest scan results which picked this up today. e0ea0553-bdf1-11ea-9f09-2c4d54658ea8.zip Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinHeadedEagle Posted July 4, 2020 ID:1392132 Share Posted July 4, 2020 (edited) Thank you, that should also be fixed now. Explanation why this happens: Edited July 4, 2020 by TwinHeadedEagle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
