Hi,

The recent 1.6 update has been flagged by my antivirus and it is not letting me play the patch. I don't see issues with other patches.

I've attached screenshots for the same.

Please let me know how I can overcome this error.

Thanks,
Vortex4

Simply add the patch folder to the antivirus exceptions.

We are no company, which means we are not able to add a digital signature to our binaries. This may lead to false positives if those files were changed just recently. Once more people have that file on their PC; it will automatically be whitelisted by the AV lab. You can go around this, by adding scanning exclusions.
