Hi!! The downloadable file mJoysetup.exe from vjoystick.sourceforge.net/site/index.php/download-a-install/download for Windows 10 seems to be infected with malware. This is a recent development, as I installed it in the end of December with a fresh download and it was just fine. Luckily I have a clean copy which I was able to give to the person needing the download, but you should probably clean out the artifacts with fresh builds. Thanks! |

Malwarebytes is also classifying it as malware, but gave it a generic designation because their heuristics AI flagged it rather than a specific virus definition.

Yes, this file is not my file (Should be vJoySetup.exe). I will see to it but meanwhile you can go the the SourceForge repository and download the (what seems to be) the correct file. |

Ummm, how do I remove the file? I already removed the setup file, which I never ran, but it still shows up as an active threat in Windows Defender even after removing it via Windows Defender

This is not a false alarm. The SourceForge database has been probably compromised. Please go to the repository as indicated by @alper and get yourself a clean copy.
