Windows Defender detection as trojan #26

Closed fyr77 closed 3 years ago

fyr77 commented 3 years ago

Describe the bug This is probably a false positive, but the latest release (2.3) gets blocked by Windows Defender for containing a trojan. According to Virustotal no other antivirus engines detect it as such.

To Reproduce Try to use it on Windows 10 with Windows Defender enabled.

Expected behavior Regular run of the application.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

CPU: Intel Core i7 6700k
RAM: 16GB
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080ti
OS: Windows 10
Converter: n.A.

I checked VirusTotal today, It shows MS Defender does not perform false-positive anymore.

Please update your defender and check again thank you.

My PC is still recognizing it, but VirusTotal isn't, so I assume the update hasn't been fully rolled out yet. Thanks for the info.

I signed waifu2x-snowshell with private certificate.

It will suppress false-positive. Virustotal

If you worry about false-positive with windows defender, you can re-download execute from release page

thank you.

This is happening again on the latest release v2.6 https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/a6773ec8ec2d5976097136f6fdd6c8cbd45a9f4da95ea7f731a116cf4b9e3736
