Someone mentioned potential conflicts with multiple AV systems. I just realized that I had both BitDefender and MalwareBytes installed. I was assuming these were doing different jobs, but I've removed Malwarebytes now and will see if that is what is causing the conflict. No other AV tools installed so If this doesn't solve it, not sure what else I can.

Same here, no problem with BitDefender in four or five years.

I've been using the Bitdefender for maybe 4 years now with zero issue re VFP. The only fox related issue is with Refox, which I use rarely, and that was getting blocked. Added an exception in the "Advanced Threat Defense" module and sweet from there.

Just wanted to throw this out and see if anyone is running into something similar.
I have been wanting to find a new AV tool for my system and have been testing BitDefender for the last few weeks. I started with the free version and upgraded to the paid version after I realized the free version didn't let me exclude processes or files or folders.
However, since I've upgraded, I found that there is apparently something BitDefender doesn't like about some of the stuff Foxpro does during compilation (it crashes before completion and throws an error about unable to write to the path). Alternatively, when I run my modified GENDBC.prg to create a dbcbuilder file used by my applications, not only does it crash it trashes the DBC file being processed.
I've tried excluding VFP6 and VFP9 processes and I've tried excluding files to no avail. The only solution is to go into BitDefender and turn it off for 15 minutes or so and then I can complete the GENDBC or compilation process without any problems.
So here's my questions:
Is there something I need to do different with BitDefender to makebe more friendly to VFP?
Should I just dump Bitdefender and go with a different AV tool? Ifso, what's the recommended tool.
Thanks!
