Is this a Virus?

Itch.io says that the download is suspended for some reason.
Is this a virus?

The virus warning is a false positive, due to a DLL file that is in the directory. However, I don’t know what you mean by Download suspended, could you clarify?

It says its quarentied due to suspicous activity on ur accoint

I see, on my end this issue does not seem to be present. If the issue persists, I will contact Itch.IO to have the issue resolved.

Thank you.

Just saw this post after making my own about this problem, but it is still saying it's quarantined due to possibly being a scam or virus.

You’ll have to identify the specific program that is being detected, is it app.exe, install-eas.exe, or start.exe? Once you find the file that is being quarantined, you will be able to add an exception.

It's actually itch.io doing the quarantining, on the download page a popup appears that says that itch.io has flagged the download.

Here's a screenshot of the popup that appears.

Are you kidding me? I didn’t even know that. I’m going to contact them ASAP, thank you for letting me know.

No problem, I hope everything works out.

Hello, just wanted to give an update, I have confirmed that this issue has been resolved. I’ve spoken with Itch.io support and they appear to see no quarantine placed on this game. If you still see the warning however, please consider clearing your browser cache, and reloading the page, thank you!
