Flagging anti-cheat as a Trojan on Windows PC

I'm experiencing an issue where my anti-cheat software is being flagged as a Trojan by Windows Defender on my PC, and I'm not sure why this is happening or how to resolve it. I've tried to reinstall the anti-cheat software, update Windows Defender, and run a full system scan, but the issue persists, and I'm looking for a solution to prevent Windows from flagging it as a malicious program.

    This is the most reliable long-term fix. By adding an exclusion, you tell Windows Defender to ignore a specific file, folder, or process, preventing it from being scanned or blocked in the future.

  • The software you are using is dangerous based on Windows defender report. Pls uninstall it from the computer.
