I got this WebRoot message after installing updates and restarting my computer

 

"This file is trying to install itself every time the computer turns on"

 

The file:  REGISTRYMACHINESYSTEMControlSet001ServicesWmiApRplPerformance

 

There was a count down timer saying it would block the file (again) in 120 seconds.  I had options to allow, allow always, and deny always.  The count down timer ended before I had a chance to research and see what the file is.

 

I did a full scan with no problems.  What's the correct choice for this alert?
Hello hermannmi,

 

Welcome to the Community Forum,

 

Looks like this is a legimate registry entry.This looks like a Windows Event Service.



 

Please look here at the PC User Guide and you can set this to allow

 

Let me ask @ just to confirm.

 

 

Kind Regards,

 

 
Hello and Welcome to the Webroot Community!

 

I wonder why WSA is detecting this and it's sounds like a firewall alert so I would Suggest you Submit a Support Ticket so they can have a look.

 

Thanks,

Hi I have this same issue and also blocked these files without knowing what they were. The files are not showing up in my block/allow list though, how can I allow them?

Hello,

 

Please look here and please Submit a Support Ticket: https://community.webroot.com/t5/Webroot-SecureAnywhere-Internet/False-positive/td-p/281076 so it looks like the Bug is back....? Also note what I posted here as WSA cannot remove those so no worries: https://community.webroot.com/t5/Webroot-SecureAnywhere-Internet/False-positive/m-p/281107#M10809
