Hi,

I've made a python program and I converted it to .exe file using pyinstaller. But the defender detects it as a trojan. Is there any way to fix this problem?

    It depends of which antivirus they use and where they put the file.

    The fact that defender react on you PC didn't mean it will be the same on another PC.

    The best way is to try and look.

    Sincerely, Cyril

    Hello

    I'm Cyril, independent advisor, and I'm happy to help you :)

    There's a way to fix this problem. You can add the directory whare you have your .exe to exclusion list of defender.

    Use the steps below to do that :

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/add...

    Once added to exclusion list, defender won't put alert anymore.

    Sincerely, Cyril
