 * Hallo Updraft Plus Team, i just received a message from my Provider, that there
   Virus Scanner detected a Virus File in the Updraftplus Folder. This is the path
 * wp-content/plugins/updraftplus/templates/wp-admin/tceOgtksgS.php
 * I looked via FTP and found the tceOgtksgS.php File. I also looked on other Servers
   where i use Updraft and in that Path i don’t have that file. Do you have an idea
   what that could be? Should i delete it? I really don’t know what to do right 
   now. Thank you very much.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fvirus-in-updraftplus-folder%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi,
 * Sorry for the delay.
 * That file is not part of the UpdraftPlus backup plugin, you can compare your 
   version with a fresh copy here if you ever get a report of a file being a virus:
 * [https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/updraftplus/tags/1.13.15/](https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/updraftplus/tags/1.13.15/)
 * I would recommend to remove the UpdraftPlus plugin from your site and upload 
   a new copy downloaded from the WordPress plugin directory found here:
 * [https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/updraftplus.1.13.15.zip](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/updraftplus.1.13.15.zip)
 * Then to run another scan to see if there are any other files that don’t belong.
 * Best Wishes,
 * Ashley
