You have to turn off your virus scanner or add an exception for OpenLP. For me it works.

I advice against turning off your virus scanner. Just add an exception for OpenLP.

We are preparing a 3.1.6 release that will prevent the false antivirus warning.

3.1.6 was release 13Jan20225 and it still is flagged by MS Defender as threat/trojan

dalekrebs We see different reports from users on Windows regarding false antivirus warnings. So the change made in 3.1.6 helped some Windows users and others, including myself, not.
I will continu to investigate how we can get rid of * all * false positives, but that takes some time and a new release as well.

It seems that OpenLP 3.1.6 is whitelisted now by Microsoft Defender; I get no blocks anymore on both the installer as the executable on my Windows 11.
