Hi,

Please note that files like exe patchers, loaders, trainers, keygens and other programs with various behaviour on legitimate programs won’t be seen as goodware. Besides, such programs use non standard executable packing mechanisms/encryption schemes which triggers the heuristics on such files. Such mechanisms are usually employed in malicious files to prevent AV programs from detecting them, which is why a generic approach in detecting such behavious becomes necessary. This is one such detection and if one wants to use such kind of software unconditionally, it is always possible to add them to the exclusion list in AV options.

Regards,
Ionel
