==== Why does SkyTemple set off false positives? ==== | |||
SkyTemple (and the SkyTemple Randomizer) use [https://pyinstaller.org/en/stable/ PyInstaller]. PyInstaller is coincidentally also used by many viruses, causing antiviruses to flag most programs that use it as viruses, even if they are not. This unfortunately includes SkyTemple, resulting in the false positives. | |||
