There is a virus in the installer
Anti-virus and false positives
Technical Questions
We strictly refrain from embedding malware or viruses within our installers, as such actions would severely damage our business reputation. However, there are rare instances where antivirus software may erroneously flag our downloads or installations. This can occur due to two main reasons:
- False positives: Antivirus programs mistakenly identify harmless files or processes as malicious due to similarities with known threats.
- Incorrectly flagging our download servers as malicious entities.
We highly value your feedback in such cases, as it allows us to promptly address these issues with the antivirus software providers.
