Hi,

I can't reproduce detection on this file. It's actually not supposed to detect this file at all, as this isn't even a binary/PE file.

According to the log, it's supposed to detect a bundled cheatengine installer, so I wondered if you have that installed as well, where it was probably open during the time of this scan, so it misreported this.

Cheat Engine is installed on this machine, however it was not running at the time of the scan (afaik), and hasn't been run since April. I'm also unable to reliably reproduce the detection with a threat scan, custom scan (with all scan options enabled) or scan triggered using the shell extension, however this is not the first time this specific detection has happened for me on a scheduled scan (see attached log from last week).

I've also found another erroneous PUP.Optional.BundleInstaller detection in my history which I cannot reproduce, which I've also attached.

Hi,

I can't reproduce detection on any of above either.

The cheatengine detection is correct though, as its installer is indeed bundled. It's safe to delete the installer anyway. It just looks like a hiccup here, where it actually detects this cheatengine, but misreports it in the log.

Can you uninstall and reinstall Malwarebytes again, then reboot?

If these misreportings still happen, please post the mbamservice log that is present in your C:\ProgramData\Malwarebytes\MBAMService\logs folder

Thanks!
