Dear Reasnow support team.

   I've been upgrading FW on my S1 for a while and never had any alerts from Windows or any antivirus software, but while trying to unpack .zip file I was alerted by Windows Defender that  ReaSnow Flash Tool V5.4.7.exe contains a malicious code (Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.DA!ml). Check attached screenshot from Windows Alert. Can you give me a feedback on this?

Regards.

I think it is a false alert. I unzipped it and checked by Kaspersky Internet Security latest updated version and found nothing. I could apply it without any issue.

I am new to this forum, but I would like to respond to you. Sometimes antivirus software may flag legitimate files as threats due to false positives. However, it's always better to be cautious and verify with the support team. If you're looking for Windows keys, check out websites that offer affordable options. Just make sure to do your research and find a reliable source. There are many places where you can find cheap windows 10 keys. Still, it's essential to be cautious and ensure the seller's legitimacy. Hope this helps, and I hope you get your issue resolved soon.

Ist's a false positiv. I had that about 2 years ago and never again since.
