I was running a rootkit scan after dealing with a PUP continuing to reinstall itself and it reported a folder in my PortableApps drive called PortableAppsox that is hidden from Windows.

If there is nothing importand inside, I'd delete it. Its not part of the standard official PortableApps.com install.

Sorry for the late reply. I have no idea what's in it since it's hidden from Windows. It's not like hidden files/folders and I have no idea how to see what's inside or how to delete it.
