False Positive: Android SDK AVD Manager.exe

[trparky]

I had MalwareBytes pop up an alert about AVD Manager.exe from the Android SDK.

I checked VirusTotal for the MD5 signature of 43EFBE2A0EC17D683EED2FB9884F1F6F and according to these results, I have to say that it can't be a threat.

Crap... I don't think it attached the file in question.

Hi,

Thanks for reporting this. This is indeed a false positive and will be fixed in next update.

There is a second SDK Manager.exe file on my computer, that file's MD5 is D8CA27D7648276F40A7663145480E45C.

Hi,

The second file is also detected with the same generic detection as the first one, so has been fixed in latest update (which has been pushed out a few minutes ago)
