The virus is a false positive.
- First off you have windows defender, that flagged chrome.exe for me once which was hilarious.
- Secondly, you're looking at a game that has online features built in with a non-professional anti-cheat system built in. On top of all of that our Uploaders manually check games prior to submitting them and we even have our own AV system we run things through to make sure our userbase is as safe as it gets.
- When you run the files through something like VirusTotal you have to look at the amount of triggers, what their names are, and that AVs reputation. Some AVs use generic wording that seems scary to it to essentially say, "Potentially Unwanted Application" or "Not a high confidence score". Both of which are extremely common on false positives.
