Doesn't happen here. What happens if your anti-virus software is disabled? Maybe that's the cause.

Hmmm - had studied the event logs and found nothing. But disabling Windows Defender SmartScreen changes the behaviour...

Hello!
That's 100 percent an antivirus problem.
Are you using a pre-release version of Windows?

It's not only a pre-release problem... I saw this with the current 1803 Release also...
sometimes. M$ made the defender more aggressive at the last patchdays...

Not a pre-release version. But there could be some truth to the last patch day suspicion, as this only started happening very recently...

I used to get similar messages when using Purebasic with BitDefender running in the background. I ended up having to whitelist the main PureBasic directories and the Windows temporary folder (default place for the compiled programs to be run from) during on access scanning. I haven't had an issue since doing this.

Kind regards,

Francis

Not entirely - the compiler error message gave zero clues as to what the problem was.
