        I had a C++/CLI program give me a similar error. To be fair, some of the "tricks" I was employing are generally used for sketchy activities. I submitted a false positive report with a link to my repo and it stopped flagging within two days. I'm actually pretty impressed by that response time tbh :thumbsup: You can set your VS project directory as an exception directory in the meantime. EDIT: This was VS2015 for future reference. Also, with Avast build 17.4.2294, go to Settings > General > Exclusions, it will apply to both scans and shields.

          What do you expect when you have a unit named UnSF2? ;P Sorry, couldn't help myself. Good luck with it. Maybe there is an option to turn off checking for certain subdirectories in your anti-virus program? There is in mine, and the same type of problem bit me until I found it.

          Sudden Sun Death Syndrome (SSDS) is a very real concern which we should be raising awareness of. 156 billion suns die every year before they're just 1 billion years old. While the military are doing their part, it simply isn't enough to make the amount of nukes needed to save those poor stars. - TWI2T3D (Reddit)

            well all i'm doin is converting a .sf2 file into a buncha .wav files. there's nothing nefarious bout that. but, you're right. i HAD my visual studio dir in the exclusion list. but then was testing my .exes being signed so i un-excluded it. sooo now i gotta re-exclude it for visual studio's sake... thanks a lot visual studio.

                  Maybe it's just the *way* you're doing it. Does/would the same thing happen if you used Vienna to do it?

                    Not exactly the same boat but Comodo has a similar facility (on by default in Comodo 10) that examines scripts (e.g. ones to run regsvr32 for COM components etc) that are generated on the fly by the compiler toolchain and run. It's one of the few parts of Comodo without fine grained controls, so I have to turn that section of CIS 10 off while developing.
