Hello!
I'm not commenting on the installation, the problem is when running the program. The antivirus deletes the executable ......

Avast has been reporting Win32 (and Win64) Malware for several years now. It’s NOT a virus - Avast is detecting a false positive in several apps, including malwarebytes. Google for malware.gen avast and you will see the number of reports and almost all are reporting a ‘false positive’
I use Adaware A/v with daily updates and I've only ever known a virus report to occur on initial installation (on earlier versions of BC) due to the installation app. I've never had one on the program itself (and I scan daily)
Ok Rhubard!
I already take into account when I install or update BitComet to pause the AV; until today it had not happened to me that when running the program the antivirus jumped like crazy.
I close the thread
Thanks
It’s definitely a false positive from Avast. There have been reports for some years now of Avast mis-identifying files and applying a ‘heuristic’ label
