Visual Studio Program a False Positive?

[ChristopherS]

Hi

I recently upgraded to windows 10. Whenever I run a program I made in Visual Studio I get a Malware blocked warning. This only happens when I copy and paste my program from my back up drive(prior to installing windows 10) to the new directory. I have this feeling of someone controlling my computer. Which is why I installed windows 10 in the first place.

I attached the log and program to this post.

Thanks in advance.

Chris.

Hi,

Can you zip and attach the DKC_Editor.exe file please? This since what you attached isn't the same as what is being detected.

Thanks!

I'm sorry. I renamed it. Here is the same file that was detected.

Hi,

This is indeed a false positive by our additional machinelearning engine we have implemented.
This will get fixed.

Thanks for reporting!

Thank you for your quick response.

Can you explain why it gave a false positive? I had a similar problem with Norton.

In norton when I moved the program file it would give a warning when I run my program(when it loads images within my program)

I don't know exactly why detection was triggered in this case, as it's a machinelearning engine that triggered this. It might be a combination of many elements together, eg, lack of digital signature and version info, anti-debugging, etc..
