General Software Discussion / Re: Frustrated with Defender, mcAfee etc anti virus blocking autohotkey exe !!

« on: March 17, 2026, 03:49 AM »

I have so many apps in autohotkey in NANY.

I was making a new app fnf in autohotkey, and exe was blocked by Mcafee repeatedly. I disabled it. Fine. (Win11)
Then same exe is blocked by  Smart App Control of MS itself. Could not find simple way to disable it.

Frustrated now I am planning to do in C# itself, as MS and McAfee are both happy with it. !!!

Anyone else facing similar situation and any other option is there ?

You might want to sign the executable and add your build/output folders to Defender exclusions, that usually reduces false positives. Are you compiling with the latest AutoHotkey version and standard settings?

This is crazy.  Kind of expensive ($25 for a 12oz bag? Eek!), but my son got me a bag of the decaf, and it's... an experience.

Delicious Brazilian coffee, ethically sourced, and roasted to perfection • Order via your terminal

True, $25 for 12oz is steep. Specialty coffee often charges for unique sourcing or roasting, but if taste difference isn’t huge, sticking to a local brand on sale is the practical choice.
