Although there is a minial chance of having virus in very, very seldom cases. I do not need to buy the newest version of Photoshop Elements. Claus Leopold.

You see under detectes instances two small yellow boxes, the left with a red dot. select the one with the red dot and you create an ignore rule.' -- PC: PWA Computers Intel Core I3 2100 3.1Ghz Kingston DDR3 ValueRam 4GB 1333 Kingston SSD SV300S 240GB Windows 7 Home Premium 64bits SP1 Secunia PSI 3.0.0.11005 Internet Explorer 11 Mozilla Firefox 59.0.2NL Google Chrome 66.0.3359.117 Laptop: MSI GT780DX Intel Core I5-2450 DDR3 RAM 6GB Windows 7 Home Premium 64bits SP1 Secunia PSI 3.0.0.11005 Internet Explorer 11 Mozilla Firefox 59.0.2NL

	Hi On the Scan Results tab, you can expand the entry for any program by clicking the "+" to the left of the program entry. To the left of each detected entry of the program in question there will be 2 buttons. The leftmost of the 2 buttons (the one with a red 'dot' over the folder icon) next to each instance will add an ignore rule for the selected program, which will prevent it from being included in future scans or statistics, and it will immediately remove it from the scan results.
