Hello, during yesterday's scan FSecure detected 3 dangerous files. After using the cleaning routine and contacting support, I tried to dlete the files manually. 2 of them could be deleted, one (roboot.exe) could't be deleted (code 0x800700E1). Is there any one who could help? (next week I am out of town in a mission). Thanks in advance and have a great day, lrc

    Hello @lr

    Welcome to the F-Secure Community. Thank you for your post.

    I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble deleting the roboot.exe file. This error code usually indicates that the file is currently in use by another program or process.

    To resolve this issue, you can try restarting your computer in safe mode and then attempting to delete the file again.

    Please let us know if you require further assistance and we'll be happy to assist you further. Have a great day!
