Visual Studio 2022 & C# Generates Gen:Variant.MSILHeracles.46462 Virus
I am just now learning C# in VS 2022 and when running a small program having to do with arrays Bitdefender detected and quarantined what it considers a virus. I suspect this is a false-positive, but I wanted to post this here just in case it isn't. Previous program examples ran without issue.
I am looking for recommendations and or mitigation actions. I have also posted this message on the Microsoft support site.
Thanks.

Hello @Bannon,
The fastest way to resolve this would be to report the false positive to the Bitdefender Labs using the dedicated form at the link below:
Once confirmed, false alarms are corrected within hours.

If you believe that a website or file has been incorrectly blocked by Bitdefender, you can share the details with our malware researchers by filling out the form at the link provided below:

If the website or file is indeed incorrectly blocked, the detection will be removed within a maximum of 72 hours. However, if the detection still persists after 72 hours, please consider the website or file as malicious, as determined by our malware researchers, and the detection will remain.
