[QUOTE="Mops21, post: 1006727, member: 29565"] Hi all Here is a new test 2 build: Code: [URL unfurl="true"]https://downloads.appsvoid.com/lnk-file-guard-setup-1-1-test2.exe[/URL] It fixes the two FPs you reported. You can install this new test build over the top (reboot should not be required, except if it is asked by the setup file). Regarding K7 detection of LnkModule64.dll, it is a false positive (our DLLs are also all digitally signed). I tried to reproduce the issue you reported with Brave and Edge but I can't reproduce here (will try more on these hours). A possible solution/test: Try to open LNK File Guard GUI, click on Exclusions tab, now click on Scan Now button (this will scan the Desktop and auto-add to exclusions the .LNK files found). Then wait 2 minutes (so the app loads the new exclusions rules) and try to run Brave or Edge browser via the Desktop shortcut, let me know if they work fine now. A possible additional test in case the above doesn't work: I hope the issues you see were not caused by the privaxy.sexy tweaks . A quick test would be to uninstall LNK File Guard and then try to run the Brave shortcut, if it doesn't work then the issue is not caused by LNK File Guard.
