Would it be a good idea, if possible of course, to add a similar message about false positives to the installer (short and sweet) before the installer itself runs?

This incessant topic of ‘I have a virus’ seems daily now and must take a lot of unnecessary support effort from yourself and main contributors.

 

It is the biggest FAQ (when I see another one I usually exclaim ‘FAQ not again’ or something similar.

False positive

 

 

Then exclude all your ham software folders and data locations.

 

c:\Program Files (x86)\HamApps

c:\ProgramData\HamApps

c:\WSJT\WSJTX\bin

%LOCALAPPDATA%\WSJT-X

 

 

Exclude your logging program and it's data files too.
