Post by berlow »

Just downloaded the windows version and tried to install this on windows 11. Shortly after starting install, my anti virus programm found a malware program, put that in quarantine en stopped installation.

Could you remove the malware please?

The installer does not contain any Virus or Trojan but does contain a application (NSSM) that can turn Domoticz into a Windows service so it can run in the background.
This application is from 2017 and never had any issues until recently ... still unknown why because it is used a lot

I have found an alternative that I have checked on various online scanning websites and this one does not yet give any issues

https://github.com/winsw/winsw

I will try to find some time today to make a new installer with this today (or very near feature)

Until then, don't stress !

Thanks for the reply, I had hoped it was a false positive.
