McAfee Flagging Nodeodx.exe as melicious

Dude WithA Beard

So I have been using WebODM without an issue until today, and for some reason McAfee flagged it - twice (first time I told it to restore the file then it did it again). I am going to try whitelisting it. but for your info, here is the screeen shot:

Remove mcaffee, and just use Windows defender, assuming you're on a Windows machine

Dude WithA Beard OP

I am on a Windows machine, and I thought about that. I get McAfee as part of my T-Mobile plan so I thought I would use it (have been for awhile and don't pay extra), but I am thinking I am done with that maybe go back to Defender. Though while listing WebODM did work

Things such as mcaffee are nearly as bad as what they are trying to combat, defender is free and proven to cause no problems with webodm

Yep, don't trust anything other than Windows Defender.

Perhaps I should write some logic to have WebODM flag McCafee and to quarantine it /s
