  1. Microsoft Safety Scanner issue?


    I ran the Microsoft Safety Scanner on my PC today and it shows 29 infected files while scanning but when its finished scanning it says no infections were found. I ran Windows Defender and Malware Bytes and they didn't show any infected files.

    Is this a bug with the latest version of Microsoft Safety Scanner?
