HUAWEI Technologies Co., Ltd. Files

These are the HUAWEI Technologies Co., Ltd. files I have collected, thanks to the FreeFixer users.

The FreeFixer tool treats files from HUAWEI Technologies Co., Ltd. as trusted, which means that the HUAWEI Technologies Co., Ltd. files will appear with a green background and that there's no removal checkbox for the file. However, as you can see in the scan results below, a few of the anti-virus scanners detects the HUAWEI Technologies Co., Ltd. file(s). I'm pretty sure those detections are false positives and that the files are safe. It's unlikely that HUAWEI Technologies Co., Ltd. would ship a malware file.
