Hello,
I'm writing to you because I had a problem with Elbycdio.sys, I use AVAST Premium Security (2022) 22.1.2504 (version 22.1.6921.709) and it's been four times now that it blocks me this driver by detecting it as malware. I had to authorize it as a program through anti-virus and even doing that, it deleted the Driver from quarantine. It's either too powerful or it detects everything and anything. This version of Avast also blocks so many web pages that my Internet browsing means that I can go to computer software or download sites without the anti-virus panicking. Besides, Bitdefender Total Security 2021 was worse than him. So, I don't know if it's the new trend in anti-virus today, but it doesn't start well.
So my question is, is VirusTotal a good alternative or is it not blocking enough? Thank you for your time and please accept, Sir, my best regards.
