npm –v triggered detection, false positive?

Note, a clean install of windows 11 on a new drive.

Relatively new to scripting but I have installed Nodejs seemingly with no issues from nodejs.org.


Today however I open up command prompt and type “node –v” .. no problems.

I then however proceed to type “npm –v” and things gets blocked and put in quarantine for “Exploit.PayloadFileBlock”.

C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\bin\npm-cli.js

C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe


My first thoughts are this has to be a false positive right? But I have 0 experience with node so.. where do I go from here?


Thanks.
