I think this is another 'AVG false positive'.Īs far as I can find no other Anti Virus software Several posts refer to AVG having had false positive. When they 'packeged up the files ready for download'.

It deleted 2 instances of the msi_pkgchk.exe files, and then archived the file in the vault. OK, AVG 7.5 is done on the notebook, and is reporting the issue as "healed".

I am currently running the FREE AVG 7.5 on my notebook, and 8.0 on my PC.īoth of them are in the middle of their daily scheduled scans. but I suspect that this is the one that isĮdit, on, to correct path to "msi-pkgchk.exe" I don't know the Virus DB version that was released on
