Windows Defender is detecting the latest version's download as a Trojan
(1/1)
Mruphmario:
Specifically Trojan:Win32/CryptInject!ml. I've seen gameplay of this game on YouTube and have played a past version of it, but I'm still on edge and need this cleared up.
Flowey98:
It's because of the new launcher code, you just need to add it as an exception or find a way to bypass it, I use AVG.
CutmanMike:
More specifically it's because the launcher was written in Autohotkey, which modern Windows detects as a potential threat: https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=59598
Unfortunately we'll have to create a new launcher from scratch to fix this, which isn't going to happen for a while.
You can download a version without the launcher here: https://cutstuff.net/public/MM8BDM-v6a-nolauncher.zip
However, you'll have to use something like ZDL or Doomseeker to launch the game.
ZDL: https://github.com/lcferrum/qzdl/releases/tag/3-1.1
Doomseeker: https://doomseeker.drdteam.org/
