The executable was not found.
« on: August 28, 2017, 10:50:52 pm »
My executable left me.
The other day we were fine, laughing, enjoying some netflix and today, the closet is cleaned out and half the furniture is gone.

I suspect Norton is at fault, he's been popping up when he is not wanted and generally making a nuisance of himself.
But, since we have had multiple updates and patches, I thought I would check as see if maybe it was a common problem not related to nosey norton.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled 7dtd. I ran the Verify Integrity. I listened to all it's problems. Bought flowers. Still nothing.

Signed,
Missing my zombies and sham sandwiches.

I turned off Norton, re-verified the integrity of 7DtD and the game started up with no problem.
I then turned Norton back on and the problem came back. It is definitely Norton.

It doesn't like the Heur.AdvML.C file. It categorised it under Heuristic Virus and Quarantined.
I think a sample went to Norton for review.

I reinstalled 3 times. I finally went to options in norton to allow that file.  Works like a charm

Norton sucks. It's a resource hog. Malwarebytes for the win. Trust me, you'll never go back. Most IT professionals use it as well. That should tell you something.
