WC3Connect being automatically deleted by McAfee

Postby jwinzlo » Mon Jan 28, 2019 4:21 am

For some random reason, McAfee deleted and will not allow me to download WC3Connect due to a file that "is a virus". Any suggestions to what is going on?

Just found a fix Jwinzlo, go to your McAfee options and hit settings -- Quarentined items -- Then you should see wc3 connect there. Just hit restore and it should be back.

After that, next step is to either turn real-time scanning OFF or go to real-time scanning options and hit ''excluded file'' and manually add WC3connect there.

Hey guys, thanks for the response. I did what cyl0n had mentioned before he had posted. Got it to work out, but man my Windows and McAfee wanted to reject it hard core. I appreciate the help. It came on random and sudden.
