If you like Advanced System Care I guess you could simply exclude it from Malwarebyte scans?


Other anti-virus scanners are also removing IOBit. Maybe false positive considering this is a very old dispute?


Here's what IOBit recommends:

Hi everyone,

Our Advanced SystemCare is definitely clean. Sorry for the inconvenience that our program files are detected as PUP(potentially unwanted programs) by Malwarebytes.
However, PUP is a very controversial topic since it also makes legit programs as PUP.

In order to continue using our program, please try the solution below.

Launch your Malwarebytes program >> go to its Settings >> click Protection >> find Potential Threat Protection, change the settings for Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUPs) from Treat PUPs as malware (recommended) to Ignore Detection. Then reinstall our program from: http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/deta...emcare_10.html
