Greetings. After installing Krita on my Windows XP Service Pack 3 machine, Norton antivirus keeps it from opening because of "Suspicious" file called Cloud.F.

After scanning the Krita folder in the Program Files Folder on the C drive, Norton deleted several files named Cloud. When I tried to open Krita, it started the installation process again, but it was aborted by Norton because of the Cloud file. So what is this file? Is it a threat?

I'm using a custom-built PC running Windows XP Home, Service Pack 3. 2.8 GHz CPU, 4 Gb RAM, nVIDIA GT 620

Thank you.

There are some brushes/preset that have the word cloud as part of the filename. Not sure if that's what it found.

Hello @branbardling

Those files does not seem to be threat. I scanned the krita XP files with ESET NOD32, Avira Antivir and Avast and all files come out clean. You can safely add them to the exclude/ignore list of your Antivirus Software solution.
