I use the Mac version of iScreensaver, I am running MacOS 13.6.6. When I build a screensaver for Windows and try to install it, it is seen as a virus by Kaspersky. Any ideas on why? how to bypass this?
Those are “false positive” results which are not uncommon for antivirus scanners.
You can do a few things:
- Ignore it (good if this is for your own personal use)
- report it to the antivirus vendor as a mistake
- take steps to Code-Sign your EXE file. This is not easy, but is a requirement if you are delivering the software to the public. See full instructions here: iScreensaver : Code-signing, Notarization, Gatekeeper and Authenticode
Thank you for dropping the knowledge on me.
