7-zip has been "in conflict" with Microsoft for a while now. MS made some changes to the requirements for developer signing, and the 7-zip guys said "Sod off, we're not paying for that level of cert to appease you and your ****** Anti-virus". It went back and forth a bit, and MS responded by virtue-washing many of the exchanges from the Internet (I know they were there, I read them) and by shipping changes to said Anti-virus which resulted in a significant rise in false positives for 7-zip archives. Might be like that's catching on with other ****** security products.Today was the first time I've signed on to my gaming PC since an update a few days ago. When I did Nord popped up an alert that 7-zip was considered to be a high threat app and I'm guessing it's recommending removing it. Anyone else seen this kind of warning about 7-zip?
This for the purpose of downloading MODS and things like PURE for AC, just so I'm on topic 😊
