I just installed BD to try out , ran a full scan , it found a malware on


C:\Windows\SystemTemp\UnKIS.vbs

But I don't had seen any signs of infection . Is it a false positive ?

This is what I found from that location , however I was unable to locate UnKIS.vbs as I restarted my pc and the file was not there after the restart .

However, I uploaded UnKIS.reg on virustotal , seems it starts UnKIS.vbs script on startup by adding reg key .

Restoration does not remove everything. Depending on the settings you used, files may stay intact and only settings or personal files are removed or changed.
The detection is a false positive because the file belongs to Kaspersky Products Remover or kavremover which is provided by Kaspersky Labs themselves.
If you want to you can report the false positive to Bitdefender.
