Solved MalwareBytes: Same result every time I run the scan
Every time I run a Malwarebytes scan I get the same result, as per the attached screenshot.
Can anyone advise me (1) if there is a problem, and (2) how to get rid of the offending result permanently?
(I have blanked the XXXXXX part of the result - it is just my PC user name)
