Administrators Marcos 4,551 Posted January 27, 2022 Administrators Share Posted January 27, 2022 Yes, it was FP. A new engine update is being worked on which will have the detection fixed. You can create a temporary exclusion and restore the files from quarantine. Masamunnex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam1 0 Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Hello, The releases of my application compiled with Visual Studio 2019 was also affected by this false positive, the releases of my application compiled with Visual Studio 2022 did not generate an alert from the antivirus. I don't understand why the "Atlas VPN" software is considered a threat by ESET, is it spyware? I have not found anything problematic about this software in the latest news. Are you going to put in place procedures to avoid arbitrarily blocking applications compiled with Visual Studio in the future? It would be a shame to have to delay updating the anti-virus database to avoid this kind of problem. Best regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
