DeepFileFind doesn't contain any networking or exploit code, but Windows Defender falsely detects it as a "severe threat". Please report this as a false positive. How you can be sure it is safe: This program's code has a public license, so you can verify its safety up to and including by reviewing the source code and reproducing the executable using SharpDevelop 4.4.

DeepFileFind versions known to be affected:

  • 3.1.3
