Antivirus false positive nightmare

Post by zandra_s » 15 Apr 2024, 11:45

I have spent a lot of effort trying to report false positives in previous versions, including version 2.0.11 and it seems that every new version gets flagged with by more vendors.

AutoHotkey 2.0.12 has been flagged by 16/70 vendors on VirusTotal!

It seems kind of pointless to develop software that basically gets flagged as malware and blacklisted by a huge number of AV vendors.

Is there really nothing that can be done to make this better?
