Windows 11 Detect Virus With Maschine 2 ( trojan:script/wacatac.h!ml )

JFMQuebec

I'm trying to install Maschine 2 via Native Access on Windows 11.

The installation of Maschine 2 always failed and Windows Defender block this threat:

trojan:script/wacatac.h!ml

Why installing Maschine 2 generate this?

Thank you.

they've had over a week to look into it and haven't made an official statement yet

It's likely a false positive. NI's installer team is already aware of this and is looking into it.

This is what I have read, but I prefer to be 100% sure with a statement by NI. Better be safe than sorry.
