I did a malware scan on my pc which I normally do once a week, or every two weeks, and xpcgetinterfaceip.exe in my matlab\toolbox\rtw\targets\xpc\xpc\bin\ folder was flagged as malware. My computer normally comes up clean and does not flag this file. Is this file legitamate or is it actual malware hidding in my matlab folder?
Thank you
