Product: ENVY
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

When executing upd-pcl6-x64-6.6.5.23510.exe  I receive a message that says, "Trojan:win32/Powessere.G"  Does anyone know what this is about?  Windows Security removes it before anything is executed.

Laser jet P2055dn.  I am running Windows 10 with the latest update on an Envy 700-215xt DT.  Windows Security detects the Trojan.

Latest pcl6-usb-x64-6.8.0.24296.exe now reports "Trojan:win32/Kovter.G" 

Three days ago, I had a report of "Trojan:win32/Powessere.G" on the same executable.

These reports are consistent across two systems, and I'm pretty sure that the .exe file was unchanged. Perhaps a definition update changed the behaviour.
