[NabeelMansoor]

Hi,

I have been receiving the following exploit pop up every time I work on an excel document which results in the application closing. I have attached the FRST logs for your kind review.

Good Morning and Welcome back... do you by chance have this turned on (Penetration Testing) If so please turn it off, off is the default? Also if you have modified any other settings in there please click on Restore Defaults and click Apply. Then reboot your computer, as you have a lot of pending file renames form looks to be a recent update to your antivirus software.

Let us know if that solves your issue.
