Blocked Startup Programs update

Hi

 

I have started a new post although I have asked about this problem before so hope that is OK, just did not want to be overlooked.

 

I now know more about the program that is being blocked, I believe it is

Camera Configuration Application

Microsoft Windows Hardware Compatability Publisher

C:\Windows\OA009Cfg.exe

 

Anyone know what this is and how I should deal with it please.

    BusyDee,

    Thank you for using the Dell Community Forum,

    Run a malware scan on your system. It appears that the  C:\Windows\OA009Cfg.exe is malware.

    Hi

     

    Many thanks

     

    AVG ran as usual 1 hour ago and no malware detected.

     

    I have read that OA009Cfg.exe can be a false positive as I am clueless I am worried.  Any suggestions please?

    Thanks Robin

     

    Can I run it as a one off?  Can it run although AVG is up and running?
