Software showing "Conflict with Antivirus"

4.5

Your security software is blocking the app from running or saving files.

Symptoms
  • App won't open
  • Files deleted
  • "Threat detected"
Possible Causes
  • False positive
  • Heuristic blocking
  • Real malware

Step-by-Step Fix

1

Add Exclusion

In your antivirus settings, add the app's folder to the "Exclusions" list.

2

Check Quarantine

Restore any app files that were mistakenly moved to quarantine.

3

Update Antivirus

Newer definitions often fix "False Positive" errors.

When to See a Technician

If the app is from a trusted source, it is likely a "False Positive" caused by the app's behavior (like updating itself).
