That must have been an incredibly shitty virus scanner if it complains about Windows features.
Probably McAfee or Norton, which are pretty much viruses themselves.
Windows is the real virus.
Enterprise security software tends to err much more on the side of caution.
There are plenty of Windows features who's usage will flag because they are also favourite tactics by actual threats, such as Powershell one liners. Bonus if it's in Base64.
Powershell one liners are uglier than the worst winner of Obfuscated Perl Contest. Super cringe....

My company's shut off my Internet for using visual studio. Sometimes they're just too aggressive
If you need visual studio for work, youβll also need the internet. So youβre chilling out the rest of the day? Congrats.
Lmao no I had to use my phone to reach out to the helpdesk
Agreed. It was Sophos.
