Windows 7: After clean install and malware scan i found this .. !!

Hey guys ..

I have install windows 7 Build 7264 X64 on my desktop ..it was a clean install..

I did a malware quick scan using Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and here is the report:

I really don't know how i get infected with this .. i know the i have downloaded the right ISO file with right hashes ..

Edit: I scanned my laptop which i contains the same version and i found the same thing

It's a false positive & a setting included by microsoft. MalwareBytes thinks that the setting has been added by a 3rd party infection when in fact it's completely safe

1 example is some infections halt the execution of certain system files & applications so MWB thinks this is the same.

Thanks you Orbital .
