Even when legit malware gets flagged as "Wacatac" some percentage of users are sure to google the name, see that for years (if not decades) MS has wrongly flagged a ton of legitimate software as being that virus and then whitelist the actual malware on their machine assuming that Microsoft must have just screwed up again. I'm not surprised that MS hasn't fixed the problem after all this time, just disappointed.

This is how malware propagates. Most apps you get from questionable places have instructions that say disable your antivirus. I get it....but I don't want to play a game that bad.
