Weirdly, never had this with my setup.
It's only started happening recently, my builds for the last PR I submitted had no issues. So some time since the beginning of June. If there's any more details that could be helpful tracking down what the cause is let me know where to look and I'll dig up what I can.
Appium does control your desktop through the automation APIs, so AV software is likely to detect it as malware.
Add your project directory to defender exceptions.
Describe the bug
Building the master branch of Avalonia on Windows 11 with the latest Defender signatures triggers a Trojan detection warning. Looks to be related to Appium in the Integration Tests. I'm pretty sure it's a false alarm, or at least not caused by Avalonia code specifically, but something I thought the team should be aware of.
To Reproduce
Build the Master branch (or a fork of it) on Windows 11 with the latest Windows Defender signatures.
Expected behavior
No trojan warning.
Avalonia version
Fork of Master branch
OS
Windows
