Hi guys,

sorry to troble you all - didn't find anything about it in the forum.
I'm enjoing AHK for few years new. I have two scripts that I'm using in all of my workstations - to so that, I had to convert them to exe files.

I'm also using Avast AV (I love it) and last week after an automatic update of Avast, I started getting trojen wornings in all of my workstations about those two scripts (exe).
I couldn't find a way to "allow" those scripts and I can only ignore the warning EACH time I get it but I keep on getting it over and over again.

Does anyone have a solution for that?
Thanks,
Doron

Some people have had luck upgrading AHK and recompiling the scripts, or disabling the UPX compresson of the scripts.

Thanks for your answers guys,

I'm still trying to figure out how to "disable the UPX compresson".
I'm normally using "Ahk2Exe v1.0.27.05" to convert AHK scripts to exe. I never did see an option to disable UPX compression there.

I must be doing something wrong obviously.

removing or renaming UPX.exe in the compiler folder will remove the UPX compression for scripts compiled after that point.

Go to their website.

If they don't, then i wouldnt buy their software.
