  1. PUA security says PUA found, but does not show what it is or actions for it!


    For about a month now, since the update for windows back then, I have been getting a Potentially Unwanted Application found notification every time I start my computer and it boots into Windows 10.

    PUA not deleted or quarantined by Windows Defender

    HI, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    A PUA is not actually malware, it is an application on your PC that Defender deems to be possibly unsafe.

    Please provide a screenshot of the history list in Defender showing the PUA's it has found on your PC.

    pua notification won,t go away

    Hi #seahawk#

    Thank you for the screenshot, Defend does not list the app it considers to be a PUA, the best option is to perform an offline scan with Defender, then download the free version of Malwarebytes and run a full scan with that, those scans should remove the PUA from your PC.
