Agenda File Isolated

[chris.lane184]

Currently running 10.13.6. My Avast Security software isolated /Applications/Agenda.app/Contents/MacOS/Agenda for the following reason: “MacOS:Bundlore-CU [PUP]”
To my knowledge, Agenda was up to date when this happened on Aug 20th, but I am unable to open the app since the file has been quarantined. I’m looking for clarity on what Avast is actually isolating here. TIA.

As it turns out Avast has out of the blue tagged Agenda as containing adware, which is not the case, it was a false positive. They have since corrected their mistake and Agenda is now whitelisted and should no longer show up.

As you can imagine we are quite dismayed and shocked that Avast is tagging official Mac App Store software as such, forcing our users to doubt our software.

Their support have told us that the updated whitelist should propagate within 24hrs, which would mean it should now be available. Perhaps all you would have to do is to run their scan again, I would suggest to try that first. If that doesn’t help I’m afraid you’ll have to contact their support as I’m further not familiar with Avast and their “security” software.

Thanks for the info @mekentosj. Very helpful. I assumed that it was a false positive, but just wanted to do my due diligence just in case.
