Hi-

I have been loading applications onto what I considered to be a fresh install of Windows. I opened up the "manage application" settings on Kasperksy Total Security which gives me list of applications. Most of these are things I recognise. However, there are two strange items- one called "Dave Kerr" and one called "Todo". (screenshot attached).

Does anyone know what these things are ? Is it Malware ?

Thanks for your advice.

UPDATE: I have worked out that these applications appear when pcloud is installed.
Pcloud is good software which I trust, so I have emailed the company to ask if this is normal. I will await their reply.

Thanks for your replies. I got this from pcloud....

There are no such apps like "Dave Kerr" "Todo" and "N Software" which are installed with pCloud Drive. You can find the latest desktop app version here - pCloud - File Security Made Simple | pCloud

I am not entirely satisfied with this answer as these programs are only showing up after pcloud is installed. Even though kaspersky marks them as "safe" its a strange situation. I am pretty sure that my laptop is not infected with malware because I am just in the processs of loading applications onto it after a clean install of Windows 10. I have not properly used it yet.
