new update is being flagged as trojan, "Watac" or something like that

(2 edits) (+2)

From my research, Godot games sometimes get false flagged by windows.
The only solution seems to be to pay microsoft a bunch of money to get a certification...
I tried on my old laptop to test it out, and it didn't get flagged.

my pc flagged it aswell

You can bypass that by either going into your window security settings, and telling it to allow the software to play or when Windows flags the game when you launch it, click learn more and it will give you the option to play anyways when you click that it lets you play the game and it never gives you that screen again.

It's just windows defender's !ml thinking that the program is a virus because godot accesses their URL for some checks and a few files, anything that does this without a certification gets flagged.
