File detected as suspicious by AVAST

mat4444 opened this issue · comments

Hello,
I wanted to check your software that seems to be great, but Avast keeps opening pop-ups for suspicious file. (both for the installer and the zip file).
Is there a particular reason it detects your software as suspicious ?
Thanks !

Hi,
I don't know what made Avast unhappy, it's possible that it detects Bitcoin miner that executables are not signed.

Yes, it's possible...
I just wanted to let you know because I think Avast is quite popular, even though not the best antivirus out here.

Did it detect anything after installation?

Yes, it detects "Home Assistant Taskbar Menu.exe" as suspicious as well. It sent it to the cloud for further analysis. I was unable to launch the software until a few hours later, when the analysis report came back as a false positive.

Don't want to be rude but after Avast acquired AVG the whole company is heading to... Just check it via VirusTotal and if magority of big names say OK, then add it to whitelist. 🙂

Ok, I am closing this issue :)
