[wix-users] installer reported by Windows Defender

[Stewart Lynch]

Hi,

 

I don't know if it's a coincidence, but ever since I upgraded to Wix
v3.10.3.2924 Windows Defender is reporting my installer and removing it.

 

This is what it reports:

e=Trojan%3AWin32%2FFathale.B!plock
<https://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/threat/encyclopedia/entry.aspx?na
me=Trojan%3AWin32%2FFathale.B!plock&threatid=2147709273&enterprise=0>
&threatid=2147709273&enterprise=0

 

Obviously I've scanned my entire PC, and scanned my installer with many
other scanners and they all say its fine.

 

Has anyone else encountered this, or have any idea why Defender might have
started complaining?

 

Thanks,

 

Stewart.
