Hi,
Fortinet Antivirus reported W64/Encoder.834E!tr in my local cygwin installation. When I tried to rectify be reinstalling, Fortinet barked on the installation files as well. As this is a company box, I'm somewhat at the end of my tether - cannot inspect or otherwise investigate the file.
That is I cannot check whether it's possibly a false positive or not.
What's the usual procedure for this?
Best regards
Tuomo

In short: you'll need to take up the issue with Fortinet and/or your
employer's IT department. It's very likely a false positive, and we're
not going to be able to help until or unless you can show otherwise.
