    I have been receiving this pp cart file alert from wordfence for quite a while now but it doesn’t appear to be malicious.

    I keep marking it as fixed but the alert comes back on subsequent security scans.

    There is an option to compare or repair the file but it doesn’t work.

    Here is the alert followed by a snippet of the corrupt?? file:

    Hi, this could be considered as a false positive. You might like to find out if you can exclude our plugin from being checked by Wordfence.

    Kind regards
