Here is a screenshot of a file digitally signed by HP Inc.:

As you can see in the screenshot above, Windows states that "This digital signature is OK". This implies that the file has been published by HP Inc. and that the file has not been tampered with.

HP Inc. Files

These are the HP Inc. files I've collected, thanks to the FreeFixer users.

The FreeFixer tool treats files from HP Inc. as safe, which means that the HP Inc. 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 HP Inc. file(s). I'm pretty sure those detections are incorrect and that the files are safe. It's unlikely that HP Inc. would ship a malware file.

Scanner and Detection Names

Here's the detection names for the HP Inc. files. I have grouped the detection names by each scanner engine. Thanks to VirusTotal for the scan results.

As mentioned above, I think these detections are incorrect since it is very unlikely that HP Inc. would ship a malware file.
