Comment:
Firstly, mingw-get-setup.exe does not create files — it installs mingw-get, and
nothing more. It most certainly is not responsible for creating a.exe.
If, what you really mean is that you ran mingw-get-setup.exe, to install
mingw-get, subsequently used mingw-get to install a compiler suite, which you
then used to compile your own a.exe and BitDefender doesn't like that ... well
that's hardly a problem with mingw-get, much less with mingw-get-setup.exe. My
own view is that this is a BitDefender issue — most likely a false positive
detection. In any case, it isn't a MinGW issue; you need to make your own
decision about how much faith you put in BitDefender ... we cannot help you
with that.

Ticket details:
Hi. I recently downloaded mingw-get-setup.exe. The problem is that the files
that I create with a .cpp extension are blocked by the antivirus installed on
my computer, Bitdefender.
Information:
Windows 10
gcc version 9.2.0 (MinGW.org GCC Build-20200227-1)
GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.32
Microsoft shell - cmd.exe
MinGW version 0.6.3-pre-20170905-1
I receive this message:
C:\Users\Maria\Desktop>g++ hello.cpp c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/9.2.0/..
/../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot open output file a.exe: Permission denied
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status
I am trying to compile and execute some files locally and this is not the first
time I run into this problem. In the past, I decided to use an online compiler
after observing that it doesn’t work locally, but it turns out I need to use
MinGW in the end.
The antivirus warns about this after trying to turn a file into an executable:
The file C:\Users\Maria\Desktop\a.exe is infected with Gen:Variant.Ursu.852514
and was moved to quarantine. It is recommended that you run a System Scan to
make sure your system is clean.
I don't know if it is safe to add this warning to exceptions, so that the
antivirus ignores it. I thought that maybe it can be a false alarm from the
antivirus.
If there is some information about this topic, is it possible that I receive a
link on with how to deal with this problem?
Thanks for your time!
