Just FYI - after updating to the latest 21.8.1 version of XYplorer I got a virus warning from MS-Defender:
Defender False Positive on XYPlorer 21.8.1
Re: Defender False Positive on XYPlorer 21.8.1
I have similar.
Now I need to prove there isn't an issue (if there isn't?)
to get this reapproved on my work laptop..since it was automatically removed/blocked.
It may have triggered when I started a large copy operation from XY.. or just a coincidence.

The good old false positive. The Windows 8.1 defender had no problems with it.
0200 will come out soon...

#MeToo.
I am also getting false positives on another application I've used for years.
Really annoying!

The newest beta is clean for my actual Kaspersky Ant-Virus and also for Windows Defender with actual signatures.
Virus Total only has one complain from Cylance, a tool no one knows.
So XYplorer is clean.
