Brief information for Windows users. Microsoft Defender has started reporting a Behaviour:Win32/Hive.ZY detection since 9/4/2022 (around 11:00 UTC) when a Chromium browser (Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge) or an Electron-based app (WhatsApp, Discord, etc.) is accessed. This is a false positive - for details see.
