Windows Defender flagging it as Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml #82

Closed TsukiZero closed 3 years ago

Didn't happen before.

This is a false positive. CapsLock Indicator is not a trojan or any other kind of malware. If you don't trust the pre-compiled binaries, you can always compile from source.

Windows actually stopped the process and deleted the file on my end. As @TsukiZero said, this never happened before to me as well. Would it be possible to restore the previous behavior? I'm unsure what might have triggered this false positive but I cannot add exceptions to my company computer so for the time being I am sadly unable to use the latest version of the program :(

It seems a recent windows defender definition update solved the issue, I re-downloaded the latest version and now Defender is chill!

As I haven't heard anything back for a while, I assume this issue has been solved and can be closed.
