    Webroot indicates that an active process (explorer.exe) has a possible handle leak

    Webroot indicates that an active process has a possible handle leak (explorer.exe). Is this an issue that needs to be repaired, and if so how?

    I just installed Webroot two months ago (4/2017) and I received the same warning when I ran the System Analyzer, except it was for OUTLOOK. Thanks to your input; I'm choosing to ignore the statement about "possible handle leaks".

    Webroot doesn't have the option to disable the feature as it's not an add-on but a link you click to run the System Analyzer. The fix is to simply ignore the System Analyzer "feature" in the first place if it's just a marketing hype.
