Should I delete this?

I breifly searched a bit on google and it said that autochk.exe was safe. So then why would antivir be detecting it as bad?

Check the file's properties and see if it is a Windows file.

What is your brand of antivirus?

Do not delete - it is part of the operating system. The antivirus message is a 'false positive'.

System files can be infected by viruses, so your antivirus could be picking up that. What is your brand of antivirus?

Yep, it was a false positive.
