[Solved] G DATA incorrectly detects Wise Care 365 as a PUP and removes it


Recommended Posts

Since the inception of WiseCleaner, our commitment has always been to provide users with tools that are not only safe, virus-free, and easy to use, but also highly efficient. To ensure compliance with the security standards of various anti-virus programs, we rigorously test each new version by submitting it to Virustotal for a comprehensive security analysis before release.

However, due to factors such as updates to the anti-virus software's rules or other unforeseen reasons, Wise Care 365 might be incorrectly flagged as Junkware (PUP): Win32.Application.Agent.12J by G DATA Antivirus (or G DATA Security). This may cause Wise Care 365 to not function, be unable to be reinstalled, or be unable to be updated.

If this happens to you, don't worry. We will contact G DATA immediately to correct this false positive as quickly as possible. We also sincerely ask you to submit a false positive report to G Data as a user, which will help us fix this issue quickly.

SUBMIT A FALSE POSITIVE TO G DATA

In the meantime, you can follow the steps provided below to add Wise Care 365 to the G DATA Antivirus (or G DATA Security) exception list, allowing you to continue using the program without interruption.

We deeply appreciate your trust and support for Wisecleaner and thank you for your understanding.
