Trojan:Win32/Critet.BS - False positive from Defender?
Still_Game:
I tried clearing MSE quarantine of the false trojan on Friday, removed the ignore rule that I'd added, uninstalled WR 4.0.15 and attempted to reinstall but MSE still flagged it as a trojan, so had to tell MSE to ignore it again. I'd already checked VirusTotal to see that the file was safe. I installed the very latest MSE updates before attempting reinstallation. I guess I'll have to wait for the next iteration of Windows Repair and see what happens but in the interim I'm using it on the assurance that it's a false positive. I'm using Windows 7 SP 1
jpm:
I literally just got another notification from them saying it was cleared. I reported it on Essentials as well. Maybe their essential definitions run behind or they missed it the first time. But it should clear up soon.
fabrikator:
With latest MSSE virus update v1.263.1128.0, 6:40 P.M. CDT, 3-25-18.
Still being flagged. Somebody, probably Microsoft, is lying to everybody.

I realise it's a false positive but MSE is still rejecting WR 4.0.15 even after updating the definitions this morning. I'd previously told MSE to ignore the false positive and installed 4.0.15 anyway but uninstalled WR this morning, cleared all references to it in MSE and tried a new install but MSE still stopped it until I'd asked it to ignore the false positive again.

This is strange because the submission system says it is clean.... and it is.
Clearly they are having some sort of definition issue. I will try and get some clarity.
