Hi,

 

yesterday Flight Simulator 2020 (i got Steam Version) got updated. After starting the game KIS (2020 and 2021, newest database) found PDM:Exploit.Win32.Generic in “flightsimulator.exe”. The activity monitor flagged it as “suspicious behavior” and deleted the exe. Theres also a list of reg-entries (HKLM\System\ControlSet001\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\FirewallRules\...) in the monitor. So maybe the way Flight Simulator corresponds with its servers made KIS think its a trojan.

 

I could start/play the game before the update without any issues.

Solved ?

Who can confirm that the problem is no longer reproduced? Update the bases of our product before running this game.

Re,

I’ve desactivated the “trace files” option, restart the computer.

Tried to launch FS2020, and now it works.

Kaspersky’ bases are updated and the last ones (14/04/2021 - 08h55)

For me, solved :)

Hello @gside & @forcebio, @FranckM,

Otherwise, run the system in Safe mode, copy System Watcher folder, zip, upload. 

@FranckM, IF your Kaspersky install is 100GB+, there’s something wrong. 

 

 Thank you🙏

Thank you Mr & Ms Flood, I’m able to copy the folder as shown :)

 

The 100+ Gb is MS Flight Simulator, fortunately Kasperky is not that large.

I’m reinstalling Flight Simulator and I’ll keep you posted.

@FranckM please update base of our product before starting game. Thanks. Send result.

Bonjour à tous,

 

Je m’interresse à l’aviation mais je ne suis pas informaticien!!

“Metter à jour les bases”  cela veut dire quoi et ou sont les “dernières mises à jour de base” et comment il faut faire,

Jespère qu’il faut pas tout réinstaller…

Merci pour votre aide

I fixed the problem by adding FlightSimutaor.exe to both Exclusions and Trused applications

Hey now I am using the latest update and now Kaspersky was detecting this file in my Fifa file, which I choose the option to disinfect and delete. It was working completely fine for over 6 months as I was playing Fifa completely fine.

Hi, after disinfecting and restarting my PC, I verified the files of Fifa 21 and it found one missing file. I think the PDM file is what was missing and it automatically installed it. Before hand Fifa 21 wouldn't load because I think Kaspersky was preventing it from working. Since I bought Fifa off steam, it needed to communicate with Origin, EA's PC platform but this file, I think, is what allows them to communicate. Because Kaspersky withheld it, Origin couldn't registered it as downloaded, which was the issue I encountered. This was just before I started disinfecting my PC and now that I had reinstalled it, everything works fine. Just out of curiosity what is PDM:Exploit.Win32.Generic.nblk? Kaspersky actually also blocked PDM:Exploit.Win32.Generic as well. Also if I leave these files as is, is anything bad going to happen to my PC?
