See https://github.com/GCuser99/SeleniumVBA/issues/89#issuecomment-1783953229 (update Windows Defender)

Please let us know if the update doesn't fix it

Not a duplicate because current window defender version 1.401.241.0 still detect virus.

@jjsmeets, I submitted the same exact file to MS Security Intelligence last week and it came back negative for a virus. Soon after making that submission, Defender stopped identifying the file has a trojan, and all was back to normal.

So I suspect the same is happening this time as well - a false positive. Out of an abundance of caution, I have resubmitted the file to MS Security Intelligence, and will let you know the outcome as soon as they get back to me....

Thanks for reporting,

Mike

@jjsmeets, I haven't yet got the result back from my submission to MS, but I just updated Defender to version 1.401.256.0 and can now download SeleniumVBA.xlam. Feels like a repeat from a week ago... Again, thanks for reporting and sorry for the inconvenience...
