Today I upgraded to glasswire 2.0 and the same results were picked up again. (i removed them)
Then did a clean install of glasswire 2 also setting the options to set firewall to defaults & clean install of glasswire data (as weird things were happening, stuff not connecting when it should of been)
clean install seemed to fix most stuff, but once again why is defender picking up registry entries after a glasswire install as a trojan??
We were getting similar reports for GlassWire 1.0 recently. We reported the false positive and we’re also looking to see what we can do on our end to solve it.
It’s probably because I block every effing useless Microsoft’s processes and apps that I don’t even use and keep sending data. Windows 10 is a nightmare.
No big deal. I just disable this garbage Windows Defender.
I get the same virus pop up too. And you may have hit the nail on the head - its because you block everything almost. I do the same thing and only let essential things out. I think Windows 10 is just calling it a virus because it does not know a firewall was installed and suddenly blocking all kinds of things that they want to get through.
But Defender removes it so what they are removing I don’t know, then it comes back.
I changed over to this new version scanned and had the false virus. Okay maybe it was from before. Removed it rebooted and it came back again.
It seems Microsoft doesn’t want you messing with their firewall? I still get it upon a reboot after removing it.
Can you try uninstalling GlassWire 2, then going to your Windows Firewall control panel and choose “restore defaults” then reboot, then reinstall GlassWire 2 using the “clean” install option in the installer, along with the option to reset the firewall there?
This is not a hassle at all. I want to get this working and it seems to be working fine now.
I went and reset my firewall myself, installed the newest version from your site, when installing clicked the check box for fresh/new install, checked the box to reset the firewall, and upon start up and reboot no false virus was found.
with the newest update in this moment Glasswire.exe now is clean. But the same is still found in Uninstall.exe. It was so also yesterday, Sorry, I forgot to mention that.
