Confirmed: All fine, working like a charm.


Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml

Hope the developer can upload a clean version, this software looks great

I’m sorry you have experienced this, but… No? Could you please provide some evidence and explain how you arrived at this conclusion? This is open source software and you can inspect the source code and compile it yourself anytime to convince yourself that there is no malicious stuff going on.

UPDATE: I have now even scanned the file with Windows Defender and no risks have been detected. I have also submitted the file to Microsoft for investigation to prove that there is no actual problem with the software.

UPDATE: I have submitted the program for a VirusTotal scan. There was not a single detection across 44 scans, as you can see on the scan page.

Without a doubt, we can flag your detection as a false positive. I have adjusted the original discussion title as I found it wrongfully harmful to my reputation.

First of all, I'm sorry to harm your work, was not my intention in any way.
Windows Defender tossed me a virus warning every time I check on the app folder and then remove the .exe file. Tried downloading it a few times, same scenario.

Just downloaded it again today and it's all ok, I don't understand why that happened, and my PC is clean as well. Again, I'm so sorry.
Feel free to remove the entire post if you like.

I’m glad to hear the issue got resolved!
