Hello,

I updated my computer but apparently, it was not a complete success. I had a error message.

After, I restarted my computer and I scanned it with avast and malwarebytes anti-malware.

Malwarebytes anti-malware detected a kind of malware : 'PUP.Optional.PriceFountain'. Below, the screenshot.

Can you tell me if my computer is infected? Or, is it an error because of update?

Thank you for your help
