Re: Work with Visual C++ WindowsForm

Hi @RBator ,

Greetings from McAfee.

We are sorry for the inconvenience caused. We request you to turn off the RTS while working on the Visual C++ as the files created does not have valid signatures, hence antivirus detects it as a threat. 

If this information was helpful in any way or answered your question, please mark it as the accepted solution and give Kudos if appropriate.

Regards,
Abhi

Thank You for answer

Very often when working with Visual C++ I browse Internet resources, will disabling real time scanning (RTS) affect the threat?

Hi @RBator , 

Turning off the RTS will not affect your device unless you download and open any files from internet. The McAfee firewall and web-advisor will be protecting your device when you are browsing internet. Real Time Scanning (RTS) feature blocks files which have virus  or unidentified signature files. Therefore your device will be safe even though the RTS feature is off if you are not opening any files downloaded from internet.
