itye1970 Posted June 3, 2024 Posted June 3, 2024 Windows defender has just today started flagging this file Affected Items \\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\AV8BNA\bin\AV8B_CPT.dll First time Ive seen this Any ideas?
TheSkyfox Posted September 10, 2024 Posted September 10, 2024 I get the same in Steam\steamapps\common\DCSWorld\Mods\aircraft\AV8BNA\bin\AV8B_FM.dll Its clearly a false-positive but if someone on the ED side explain why this might be?

Some antivirus does not like the protection used in DCS modules and flag it unfortunately 2 Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

Clawhammer Posted September 12, 2024 Posted September 12, 2024 (edited) But why its only the harrier and f15? Since i disabled and removed both modules i did not got any futher windows defender messages. f18, f16, ah64 or a10 no issues. Edited September 12, 2024 by Clawhammer

AVs are mostly only good for spreading a false sense of security and alarming users with false positives. 3 "Muß ich denn jedes Mal, wenn ich sauge oder saugblase den Schlauchstecker in die Schlauchnut schieben?"
Clawhammer Posted October 14, 2024 Posted October 14, 2024 (edited) Seems like it has been fixed (tried it today), i can start the game with these modules and updating them without freaking out windows defender. Edited October 14, 2024 by Clawhammer

Not only load times. Also hickups during gameplay can be caused by the real time scanner. I make it a habit of deactivating the realtime scanning of defender before I start DCS. Simply less headacke. 2 "Muß ich denn jedes Mal, wenn ich sauge oder saugblase den Schlauchstecker in die Schlauchnut schieben?"
