When doing a scan with HitmanPro it signals "Windows.Internal.Management.SecureAssessment.dll" as suspicous. Isn't that a critical system file. Maybe it's in the wrong directory and therefore suspicious?

Here's the full HitmanPro report on this file:

Nobody?

Can somebody at least say if the file "Windows.Internal.Management.SecureAssessment.dll" is supposed to be on your computer so can you find it on your PC if you do a search. Make sure view hidden files is ticked before searching in file explorer.

Is this a normal system file or what is this?

Hope somebody can help a bit. Thanks
