    Hi guys, I've been installing the latest Arturia Synth Collection from V. R, it works fine on my Win 7 but my Bitdefender keeps saying that the Uninstall file is a bloody Trojan...Is it a false positive like some keygen can be or does anyone had the same problem with this particular release??

    100% without a doubt a false positive, I know for a fact that no team would tarnish their name like that

    Some of these antivirus programs are super sensitive

    I dont even use one and have Windows Defender completely disabled, I do a manual scan once a month with a portable antivirus and its always clean as a whistle, I also scan for rootkits etc too

    Thanks Ayahuasca. I do agree with you, never had any problem with R2R or V. R releases so far but this is the first time my antivirus detects a threat on an "uninstall" file, so it made me suspicious... I deactivated the antivirus, installed the plugins, and then ran a scan on my C: drive. Bitdefender said that uninstall file was a trojan...but I didn't notice no suspicious activity

    I've seen this a few times, most recently on iZotope. Each time as been a false positive (I verify using a sandbox)
