QualityScaler.exe is marked as Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.B!ml by Windows Defender

[term-est]

I don't know if this is a false positive by Wİndows Defender or not. VirusTotal also doesn't like the distributed executable in the releases page

The file hash is

CRC32: CF09368D
MD5: 2486FB18B943A60793F704968DD262AE
SHA-1: 3775464FDA4D52AB6DF60C83198EF4B16E470F6C
SHA-256:	312379592aeff70993bd2a38f3d0407793fc6abaeba1fad22a3d3dfbd4eca5fb

I tried building it myself (cpython 3.10) but my build failed due to Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pytorch-directml, not really a python guy so I left it there.

Can you share a reproducible build instructions with us so that we can compare executable hashes?

Hi, I don t know how to resolve this issue of Defender...

For the 2 AI models you can find them here, i can t upload on GitHub because they are too heavy: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/13kfr3qny7S2xwG9h7v95F5mkWs0OmU0D

Ah yes, pytorch-directml now support only python 3.6 to python 3.8: so python 3.10 is not compatible

Hi, i made some research about this problem. It seems that exe built with PyInstaller (the library used to build my Py code in exe) are affected by this bug. I confirm absolutely that is a false positive. Sorry for the inconvenience :(
