Bitdefender simply blocks SIW
#1

Hello to you,
I am using an older version of SIW. Recently I installed Bitdefender.
Launching SIW seems to be a no go: it is blocked.

Just wanted to let you know. Virustotal reports no issues of course, neither SIW nor SIW64.

best regards

Thank you!

Just FWIW I removed/uninstalled Bitdefender.
In a scan it quarantined quite some legitimate software.
It even quarantined my own, selfmade simple batch file, that deletes some specific files (.lnk) in specific folders at PC start. That aside, there were some other frustrations...
Reverted to Windows Security and Microsoft Defender as before.

Interesting article BTW.
