Hello! I create some simple application for fast translate “selected” text, so I used some small utility to copy the selected text to the clipboard, from which is already being translated. The problem is that a utility that emulates pressing a combination of Ctrl + C antivirus regards as malicious. Source code for emulation keyboard combinations took from the official Microsoft site, with your permission, I give it below:


    Sleep(500);
    // Simulate a key press
    keybd_event(  VK_CONTROL,
                  0x45,
                  KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY | 0,
                  0 );
    keybd_event(  (BYTE)'C',
                  0x45,
                  KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY | 0,
                  0 );


    // Simulate a key release
    keybd_event( (BYTE)'C',
                  0x45,
                  KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY | KEYEVENTF_KEYUP,
                  0);
    keybd_event(  VK_CONTROL,
                  0x45,
                  KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY | KEYEVENTF_KEYUP,
                  0);

Please help with the problem! :frowning:
How to make this tool so that it was not considered pernicious, because the code can be seen it she was not doing anything wrong?

no detection here

what is the full message from avast when detecting? … you may post a screenshot

False Positives can be reported here https://support.avast.com → avast virus lab

The binary file (ie software) is not detected on virustotal.com. What’s interesting is checking the file antivirus says everything is OK, but when I copy the program to a different folder pops up a message on its severity.
Here is a screenshot when I try to paste the copied file

As Pondus pointed out you can submit it as FP.

PS: It helps if you either exclude your dev folders or sign your programs.

Yes, I can exclude folders with the program, but I want to spread it to other users. Register the program I have unfortunately not turn out because This is money resources that I have available, I am a student and distribute the program is absolutely free, now without a certificate.

Supporting Pondus asked to support virus laboratory, I hope for their support.

I think on the forum helped me as best they could, so thank you to all!
