do you have ESET Windows 10 Update installed ?

Hi

ESET Windows 10 Update installed on my computer

it stats via task scheduler , and it's flagged by 2 antivirus as malware

the program is update.exe and should be located C:\Program Files\Common Files\AV\ (the av version) for example C:\Program Files\common files\av\eset smart security 6.0\upgrade.exe

Maybe that's a file ESET uses in case you decide to upgrade to Windows 10? Maybe some compatibility update for ESET?

 

yes maybe, have you it on your pc?

 

I don't have ESET installed at the moment. Maybe somebody else could check it out.
