Rudel_chw Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 On my case, I trust ED’s antivirus precautions, so to avoid this false-positives antivirus actions, I have excluded from my antivirus reach both DCS paths on my PC, as follows: 2 For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB

Alicatt Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 (edited) @Raisuli @Rudel_chw I'm using Bit Defender I just came to check if anyone else had reported anything, Bit Defender will not restore the file though, will have to wait until the update is finished and then re-aquire DCS is on an exceptions list too with Bit Defender Hmmm it is finding more, now it's the Mirage F1 Quote The file D:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World open Beta\_downloads\CoreMods\aircraft\Mirage-F1\bin\MirageF1Core.dll Edited June 8, 2023 by Alicatt Sons of Dogs, Come Eat Flesh Clan Cameron
hyperveloce Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 Having the same issue. Using BitDefender, MirageF1Core.dll and C101Core.dll got flagged as infected.
Rudel_chw Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 On my opinion, all those are false-positives: https://encyclopedia.kaspersky.com/glossary/false-positive/#:~:text=As applied to the field,can be a real nuisance. 1 For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
Chump Posted June 9, 2023 Posted June 9, 2023 Norton AV (hey, stop with the name-calling, I know) did not detect it as treacherous. It normally would, it seems. In my experience, newer file signatures that haven't been approved are flagged. I agree with @Rudel_chw % that ED is not purposefully trying to sneak a Trojan onto your PC or anything nefarious. When in doubt, submit the file so that it can start being whitelisted by the AVs. When really in doubt, grab a drink and watch the sunset. 1
Flipper Posted June 9, 2023 Posted June 9, 2023 I have the same issues like Hyperveloce and Alicatt - using Bitdefender too. “The uninitiated non-believers think an airplane is a collection of moving parts and miles of wiring. We know better.” Marshall “War Dog” Lefavor [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Pikey Posted June 9, 2023 Posted June 9, 2023 So the way heuristics work is that if a file hash has never been seen before by an antivirus, it reports it as suspicious because it doesn't know any better. The logical minds would say: Does my antivirus know better about a file its never seen before, or Do I know better about a file I've never seen before? This happens every month. 1 ___________________________________________________________________________ SIMPLE SCENERY SAVING * SIMPLE GROUP SAVING * SIMPLE STATIC SAVING *

But for your own wellbeing, and for the sake of better DCS performance, it is a smart move to exlude the DCS folders from the antivirus. The risk of getting infected from ED, is not very likely.
