FYI:
Windows Defender quarantines advanced_renamer_setup.exe download posted today (2019_07_11). Flags it as a trojan - alert level Severe: Rogue:Win32/PrivacyCenter Firefox won't allow me to download the .zip version. |

This is a false positive. Windows Defender is often marking new software packages as malware or virus. I have submitted a false positive report to Microsoft. They usually respond within 24 hours. I have removed the new version until they have corrected the error. |

I experienced this at first and figured out how to unblock it. But now, having 'successfully' installed the new version, i can't open it. Any chance it's related or should i start a separate thread to try to fix this? The error i'm getting is
APPLICATION ERROR: Exception EAccessViolation in module Aren.exe at 0000B8EB. Access violation at address 0040B8EB in module 'Aren.exe'. Read of address 0000000C. |
