• NOTICES Windows Defender False Positive Detection Notice

  Greetings, Baller! Please be advised that the current issue of Microsoft Windows Defender detecting a file as a type of virus, is completely harmless.  Windows Defender may incorrectly detect the GameApp.dll file as malicious. Based on our investigation, this appears to be a false positive detection, as the game itself has been verified and matches the official version. We advise that users who encounter this issue should restore the file from quarantine or allow the file if able to. We are currently working with Microsoft to have the false positive detection reviewed and remedied. We shall provide further updates regarding this as soon as additional information becomes available. Thank you, everyone for your cooperation, and for keeping the community safe. - Freestyle2 Team
