Earlier than we launch a brand new SketchUp installer, we all the time run it by means of VirusTotal.

We’ve got a clear invoice of well being for this installer and would solely launch it if that have been the case.
Moreover, we all the time discover a number of false positives that might be system dependent or AV scanner dependent. We’ve got filed a report with the Microsoft safety crew relating to the discovering that has been famous within the two discussion board posts.

Colin, are you able to be extra clear? Ought to folks ignore this error and set up in any case or ought to folks wait to replace? Will Trimble be re-packing this set up into a brand new presumably clear installer? Or no?
I briefly turned off Home windows Safety and put in efficiently.
As quickly because the installer accomplished I turned Home windows Safety again on.
As a precaution I did a a virus and malware scan afterwards.
We’ve got instructed Microsoft about how their software program has detected an issue in our installer, that doesn’t actually exist. Hopefully they are going to enhance their detection, I don’t assume we’ve got to change something so as to work across the defect of their software program.
What Paul stated is sensible.
Simply the identical downside. Tried to obtain straight from inside Sketchup and likewise from sketchup/obtain/all, the identical outcomes. I’ll attempt now deactivate Home windows Safety, let’s see what occurs.
