[RESOLVED] Compiling with InnoSetup generates a virus.
Hi all. Hoping this is the right area to be asking this question.
I'm v. new to using InnoSetup. I'm trying to compile using some source code and Avast Antivirus is saying that one of the temporary files that generates during the compile is a Trojan Virus. Has anyone experienced this?
Is there actually a Trojan, have I got a corrupt version of Innosetup?
The file that generates the errror is PShear100Release.exe. I have this line near the start of my .iss script file:
OutputBaseFilename=PShear100Release
Should I, or do I need to turn Avast off when I compile?
Re: Compiling with InnoSetup generates a virus.
Does it say that the name is a virus or the exe itself. Try changing the name of the file and see what happens.
Re: Compiling with InnoSetup generates a virus.
It was saying something like the file PShear100Release.exe is a trojan.
I probably shouldn't have done this but I paused Avast, ran the compiler just to get a setup file then reactivated Avast. Strange thing is that since I did that, it compiles without the virus warning.
I'm running a full virus scan but I'd say it must have been some sort of glitch in the antirus program.

No, Sorry. About half an hour after I posted the topic I disabled Avast just to see what would happen. I now can't replicate the problem.
Avast is back on and it's not seeing the generated file as being a problem.
