[Solved] Virus... Trojan:Win32/Ditertag.B
When trying to update I was met with this virus from Windows Defender... Trojan:Win32/Ditertag.B
I tried getting the file from your site officially and it also hit me with this virus.
What's going on?

Thanks for letting us know about this false-positive detection. Please see the following website which shows the Windows installer is clear in 65 (100%) of antivirus scans. https://www.virustotal.com/#/file/4ea2e ... /detection
Re: [Solved] Virus... Trojan:Win32/Ditertag.B
That is great that it tests clean on those services but it is kind of a moot point if Windows 10 is nuking it and not letting it run. Any solutions to that besides turning windows defender off?
