The latest Windows Defender definition update (1.259.1155.0) flagged SetupTv.exe as a trojan. Anybody else having problems with (I hope) false positives?

    My AV (360 Total Security, freeeware) always picks up one to three threats durring the TV install phase when updating/reinstalling MP1. Hoping they are false positives.:LOL:

    Forgot to mention I'm running MediaPortal 1.16.0.0. The virus was flagged right after updating to Windows 10 Home 1709 (16299.192) and rebooting. I submitted the executable to Jotti's and it came back clean. So, I guess SetupTv.exe is another candidate for Windows Defender exclusion list. :(

    My Windows Defender definitions were just updated to 1.259.1184.0 and SetupTv.exe is no longer being flagged as a trojan. If your definitions are at 1.259.1155.0 you should probably update.

    4.5 is really old. I'm not sure 4.5.5 even is a version that actually existed. You should be able to install .NET Framework 4.8.0 on Windows 7 SP1

    Brief update... Hauppauge support responded quickly, stating that the "driver for all of our product confirm to the BDA format". Not sure what that means, but to test that, I downloaded a copy of Capture4Me, and indeed, it switches LNBs without any issues with minimal configuration (just set DiSEqC to 1.x A/B/C/D and select the...
