I think this is a false positive on a file that is a part of Steam

Had a quarentine message pop up while installing a steam update from within Steam.
 
The file was named steamoverlayvulkanlayer64.dll
 
I think that this has been sent in by several others for analysis any update on WR not flagging it as a malicious code bit?

It's marked good in the Webroot BrightCloud database http://www.webroot.com/us/en/business/threat-intelligence And look at the date and time! So you can restore the file from quarantine and then do another scan!  http://www.webroot.com/En_US/SecureAnywhere/PC/WSA_PC_Help.htm#C5_Quarantine/CH5a_ManagingQuarantine.htm
 
To check any other MD5's just go here: http://snup.webrootcloudav.com/SkyStoreFileUploader/upload.aspx
 
Thanks,

Hello,
