Hi all,

When updating RPCS3 to the latest 0.0.31 build, I got a false positive from Windows Defender (yes I know Windows Defender). It kept me from updating RPCS3 until I allowed to be an exception. It thought it was some trojan. I had never gotten this error before until I updated RPCS3 last night.

Same thing happened to me.

I'm not letting it in until I know for certain because, like you said, this is the first time RPCS3 has been flagged for a Trojan; and I've been using this emulator & it's auto-updater for years.

Known issue with Windows Defender, people already reported it to Microsoft as a false positive but if you use Windows you should also do it if you're affected.

I hadn't gotten the false positive when updating RPCS3 in the past. So it concerned me a little.
