hello
As for Keygens, even though most of them are not malware, in principle consider them illegal, since release using a paid software without the consent of its rightful creator who worked on its development
maybe deepscreen the analysis of application behavior to detect
by threat.
you are using windows keygen, crack, activation patch
I will not help you

It’s a Key Gen for MS Office 2010 and as such should be detected.

Most keygens are never detected by any antivirus. Just cause something is illegal does not mean its malware related… Since when are antiviruses FBI agents? A keygen does nothing malicious. Its simply a program to randomly spit out a serial number to copy and paste into a paid program. Most serial numbers are blacklisted within a few days anyways so its not worth it. Its not the job of avast or any other antivirus to detect these. If someone is using a keygen they already know that what they are doing is illegal. Kaspersky,Symantec,G-Data, F-Secure and Bitdefender all missed it. What does that tell you when those are top notch antiviruses.
I would consider this a PUP even though those that are using it consider a PWP (Probably Wanted Program)

I agree on a PUP detection but unfortunately PUP is disabled by default in avast. Never understood why.

it will detect if PUP option is checked in settings
the scanning
