White-list it, and all of Boost release zips.

 

The zipping process produces effectively random patterns that trigger a false-positive antivirus signature match.

 

Microsoft have been asked to whitelist it but …

 

Don’t panic ;-)

Subject: [Boost-users] Problem downloading 1.69.0 for Windows

 

Hi,

 

Windows Defender is blocking my download from https://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_69_0.html as it is identified as being unsafe.

 

Can anybody advise, please?

 

Best wishes.
