False Positive?

Bitdefender scan found malware/backdoor in a .dmp file and in Provider Data/Drivercrash. I am not able to upload the file to any sites for a test. How likely is it that a Drivercrash and a dmp file was actually malware?

    Yes, it's possible. A .dmp file is typically associated with crash dump files, which contain information about a program or system crash. However, like any file type, .dmp files can also be used to hide malware.

    Try uploading the files to the website mentioned below and share the link here. Once you share it, anyone who opens the link will be unable to download the samples, as they are automatically password-protected upon upload, and only Bitdefender staff will know the password. The forum admin, @Alexandru_BD, will take care of the link afterwards.
