I have about about a half-dozen programs that I have created for the company I work for, that are used on a daily basis. Quite often, but not always, they will trigger our corporate wide anti-virus program (Avast) for a user trying to run one of them. The anti-virus then tries to quarantine the program & deletes it from the folder where it resides (network location, not local HD). As you can imagine, this is quite a pain in the arse.
I also have a personal program that I created that is used by several hundred people worldwide, that also causes their AV to flag it.
Does anyone else have this issue? My programs don't do anything malicious, so I really dont understand why they would trigger any AV programs.
It appears that Windows Defender isn't a problem, just 3rd party AV programs. Is there anything I can do in my programs code to alleviate this?
