C# Application Being Quarantined By Bitdefender. Any Suggestions?
Hello,
I'm an amateur hobby coder and I have a C# application which has a "Open Log Folder" button in the UI. The code looks like this:
ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo
{
Arguments = folderPath,
FileName = "explorer.exe"
};
try
{
Process.Start(startInfo);
}
catch
{
...
}
Whenever the button is clicked, BitDefender immediately quarantines the app. I really don't want to ask my users to whitelist the application as it's not exactly good security practice to whitelist random apps from strangers on the internet, so is there an alternative way to open a folder that won't get flagged by BitDefender?

Hello.
I promoted you to Level 2.
You can now make your own thread(s) and/or post screenshot(s).
So, please post a screenshot from the notification you get when the app is quarantined, so we can understand which module (Antivirus, Advanced Threat Defense etc.) blocks the app.
Regards.

Hi,
@Gjoksi you summed it up very well, I have nothing to add here. It's a task for the Support Teams, if the usual troubleshooting steps do not fix the reported behaviour.
