Antivirus issues

Post by mschmelzer »

Hello,
I am suddenly having some issues with antivirus conflicting with JoinFS. It keeps quarantining the JoinFS.exe. Then when I go and try to restore the file, I get a message that I don't have permission to access the folder. I am trying to attach screenshots but can't. Also, I turn off Bitdefender and try to download the file and firefox tells me its an infected file and cannot download. Any suggestions? This is all happening out of the blue.

If you trust the file and folder then you need to add an exemption on that folder for the antivirus software. Not sure why Firefox would complain about it. I use firefox and don't have any problems downloading it. If you get a blue message box from Windows you can click on "More Info" and then click "Run Anyway"
