Reality Xp GTN 750 problem

Recommended Posts

I have purchased Reality XP GTN 750

My antivirus software (McAfee) will not allow it to run as it finds suspects files.

I therefore want a refund for the software as it is unusable.

Hello.  I am another user just like you.  The reaction by McAfee is what is referred to as a false-positive.  It has been well documented here on multiple occasions.  The product and its installer are safe.  It just requires an additional step to bypass the McAfee warning.  The product is very very useable and once you learn its functions you will be in a quandary as to why you did not get it earlier than now!   I recommend you read the topic at the link I am providing below, and I greatly suggest you scroll to the bottom and read it from bottom to top.

I am currently finding more and more false-positives, especially on websites.  I have had to in Malware Bytes exclude three different flight simulation product websites in just the past few days.  It is just an unfortunate sign of our times.  The most recent was this:  https://mfg-sim.com/  It too is a well known site from a totally trustworthy developer, so I was very comfortable in excluding it in Malware Bytes.

In my case the problem was that both Chrome and Edge refused to download the E-commerce installers! I had to fall back to Internet Explorer for that...

Just to be sure, I scanned the .exe files with BitDefender and it did not complain, so no false positives at the antivirus level.

Hi, this is normal and expected. These would be active in a real device only if you'd connect a Wx data source to the GTN.
