Title: Please stop it, emulationstation.exe is not a virus
Post by: FabioManoel1977 on January 02, 2019, 04:39:37 PM

sorry bad english

site https://emulationstation.org/

emulationstation is the thing that I like the most to have fun on my PC and you guys keep flagging it like a virus, I already added it to exclusion option and it keep being clammed like a virus, every time that I want to play emulationstation it is moved to virus vault and I cannot take it from vault anymore and I need to download again emulationstation to play it again,   I need to turn off avast anti virus to play emulationstation but sometimes I forget to do it and again the emulationstation.exe is moved to vault, I already added it to exclusion but avast refuse to obey me.

Please stop it.

I do not want to be forced to remove avast from my PC
