QB64PE Programs being flagged as having trojans

[Kernelpanic]

In this area of the Windows universe (Screenshot), MS tries to mimic something like Linux's home directory. But it's just a try! Because this whole part is under observation of the system; which in itself is correct. Download is actually OK, but if a program (a.exe) is also to be executed in this area, the alarm bells will ring.

I never had such problems because:
First, my download folder was and is never on C:\ (since Win XP Prof always on D:\)
Secondly, since MS-DOS 3.1 all programming languages I have ever used and executed are on D:\

This used to be practically meaningless, but since Win XP it has become important and the Windows system is "smart" enough to recognize that the executable was created by the user and is OK. This is much more complicated than under Linux, where this is only possible in the home directory.

Under Windows I can also compile and run a QB64 program under G:\, or just run it, the system recognizes that it was the (main) user the creator of the program was.

Conclusion: Do not set up the working directory on C:\!

There are good free programs for dividing a hard disk into logical partitions, for example: Minitool Partion Manager
