Packers and Microsoft Defender

This is quite annoying and I tried tons of different stuff to make it not detect but it is persistent like crazy. I even submitted the file to Microsoft and they marked it clean and removed from detection but after packing again and new 'pseudovariant' is detected. It's crazy.

Does anyone have any advice or atleast something to attempt to escape the Defender detection?

I tried the packed file on VirusTotal and it has like 13 detections (false postives) but nobody uses those AVs. But Defender is a bit different, it is used quite a lot.

Anyway, any tips would be welcome.

Simple... I just turn off Microsoft Defender. Problem solved.
There are many ways to do it. Just google...
Other than that, I agree with @user1 that there is nothing that can be done.

TechLord, you were banished to the shadow realm long ago. Your crybaby blog shows you are involved in militant homosexual recruitment as well, not that we are surprised by that. Maybe you should stop impersonating people and go post more nonsense there. The usual post burying garbage snd style thst is the hallmark of this crook.

I hope you are broke. Otherwise when the subpoenas hit and unmask you for a lawsuit, that will be an interesting day. Given that you can afford this hosting, I'd gather you might have enough to make it worth it. The last I checked defamation has a low bar with non public figures.
