trojan found when start bf6

Same issue here, not sure it is actually causing issues or not. Weirdly I also ran repair and noticed - this does not happen on the first ever launch of the game after repair/install.

But on every relaunch, just before the game properly hooks I get a Windows Defender alert, when I check history I see "Severe" threat for "Trojan:Win32/Vigorf.A" which is automatically removed.

An additional frustration, I am relatively confident this is a false positive, likely an anti-cheat measure or something but because the filename is also random and pushed into temp storage we cannot even Allow it and have it consistently allowed.

I did read somewhere, that this may be related to "FanControl" utility, alfri68​ do you run FanControl by any chance? I do but I don't see how it's relevant.

not use fancontrol

Maybe it should be included in the Win Defender exceptions.

Not sure about everyone else, but I wouldn't feel comfortable creating an exception for .tmp files in temp folder - asking for trouble. It's exactly where defender ought to be protecting.

I don't understand why no one else is having this problem. Maybe we could put an exception in the Battlefield 6 folder?

changed nothing.. :-(

Hey, I have the same issue. Everytime I start BF6, I get a virus detection.

I thought i was going mad thinking these were linked to BF6, but I'm having the same warnings in defender. I don't have the notifications on highly visible as my computer gets used for games and streaming from first party sources so my risk should be low. I still check Defender every few days and noticed that since the 10th I have had a few of these warnings a day. Glad I'm not alone as it has settled my panic somewhat.

same issue here, looking for possible resolution as I have blue screens every game. 

EA Anticheat is being flagged as a Trojan by Windows Defender.

Every single time I launch BF6. This issue was happening with BF2042 also, but it got "fixed" after the first thread I made. 

It's an RTP detection and the .tmp file isn't around for long. 500ms maybe, so cant copy and paste it and a script isn't even able to copy and paste it for analysis.
