Windows 10: Windows Security found something that doesn't exist

Hello, So windows security tells me I have something I need to look at. I look at it and tell it to remove it but it doesn't do anything. the file path leads to the recycle bin but the recycle bin is empty. I copy and pasted the file path into file explorer and it pulled up a window to restore the file and said that the file was taking up 0 bytes. I've restarted the computer multiple times, but it hasn't fixed.

a few hours ago I opened the storage cleanup thing in settings and it was running to delete some windows upgrade files as well as empty the recycle. I emptied the recycle manually while the process was running, this could have caused it but I'm unsure. I just want the message to go away, because it worries me that it's there.

the file is Appoweriso_BundleInstaller

Suggestion to do some reading:

  software?

Found new hardware always on startup?

You probably missed something... if you did a bios reset heres a short list of things that could have possibly been turned on - if they exist on your board:

Raid controller
1394 (Firewire)
USB
Audio

And along the lines of the sexy Demulta's suggestion (ok, maybe he's not so sexy, just his avitar *Smile ), go to "my computer" in windows explorer, right click properties - Hardware tab, device manager. Look through the tree for anything that has a big yellow "?" - question mark.

The fact that the hardware is listed as "Security Center" has me puzzled though... I didn't notice that before.

Good to see you in the Insider forum and not just the CPC. Is still with us?

Yes, but I was at my daughter's last night, babysitting.
