Digibyte Core Wallet getting deleted by anti-virus program.

in #digibyte7 years ago

Hey there,
I just wanted to install the Digibyte Core Wallet, but had some troubles with its installation. (https://www.digibyte.co/digibyte-wallets).
I solved it! So I though it could be helpful for those facing the same problem.

Problem:

After installing Digibytes core wallet, it opens for about 5 seconds and then closes automatically. Moreover the application itself (.exe) was deleted somehow. It seems as if my anti-virus program "Avast" doesn't like the Digibyte Core wallet. Therefore it deleted it without giving me a hint.

Solution:

  • Install the Digibyte Core Wallet but don't open it immediately after installation.
  • Open Avast and go to Settings -> Exclusions
  • Add the path of your Digibyte wallet to the exclusions.
  • Open the application and you should be fine.

I have read that some other anti-virus programs doing the same with the Digibyte Core Wallet. I wonder why exactly its getting blocked.
