What is SVCUPDATER.EXE, 1.47 GB in size, located in Win32Sync? Some say it's a virus. Can anyone tell me what it is, if is it safe, can be deleted?

    • Download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool (FRST64.exe)
    • Run FRST64.exe and click "Scan".
    • Upload the two logs, namely, FRST.txt and Addition.txt, to your OneDrive and share the link here.

    Thank you for helping me. I already isntalled Malwarebytes Antimalware and ran the scan but it didn't detect the SVCUPDATER.EXE. It's still there. What should I do next?
