    well it's VS, has a lot of false positives especially from the AI.
    Check VT score, check if it's signed, then based on where you got the file and how much you trust it, allow it.

    Hi andi_cro

    The permission issue will need to be worked out over there. Nothing we can do here. But what took place over there IS NOT coming here.

    Concerning the issue of re-registering in V4.09, voodooshield-token.json is again put under the temp file (the strange thing is there is another voodooshield-token.json in c:\programdata\voodooshield).

    The file in the temp is the one voodshield read?

    Once a temp file cleaner is run & wipes it out, user will need to re-register.

    Would someone kind enough to inform Dan (I don't have access to the other forum)?

    Thank you!

    I have done so, but I have checked and mine is actually under C:\ProgramData\VoodooShield, but I still have the problem.

    I have edited my previous post, actually there are two voodooshield-token.json, one in temp & one in programdata/voodooshield.

    Do you also have two?

    Thanks.

    Thank you for the reply.

    Not sure why my system ended up having two? :(

    For my case, will need to re-register the next log-on after running file cleaner.

    Actually ran CCleaner last night, and haven't rebooted since (which is when I have to re-register). Maybe that is when the temp entry is created ... will check it out later.

    Please share your findings, thank you. :)

    If need to re-register, kindly advise whether there are two voodooshield-token.json, one in temp & one in programdata/voodooshield after registration.

    Yes, I can confirm there are two. One in programdata, and another in c:\users\xxxx\\appdata\local\temp\

    I don't know whether that I "allowed a False Positive" is correct? I like to think that I am discerning in my actions. :argh:

    It seems for the last 3 reboots I have had to fill in my Registration information for VS today alone. (4.09b)

    Not sure why? Any ideas?

    For my case, will sure hit this issue after running file cleaner & a reboot.

    Hopefully Dan can iron it out in the next beta.

    Deleted manually the token from c:\users\xxxx\\appdata\local\temp\. After running CCleaner I restarted the computer VS vorked fine.
    Correct me if I'm wrong, as VS started without the token in \appdata\local\temp\, the re- registrations issue I have most morning, should have nothing to do with CCleaner.
    Note: when I run CCleaner, before manual deleting, it did not delete the token file on appdata\local\temp\.
    Others may have others settings.

    Edit:
    Just copied the token to Program Data. Let's see how it goes.

    Just in case anybody wonder how I copied the token file if I did previously manually deleted.
    I restarted the computer once more and this time was requested for registration. After the re-registration the token file was installed on appdata temp again.

    Edit:
    Here how it did go:
    After cold start there it was Registration please...
    After registration token file installed in appdata\temp.
    Removed the previous file moved to Program Data, no need for a duplicate.
    From my errors and trials I deduct that CCleaner as nothing to do with this issue.
    Rest my case.
    Have a nice weekend folks.

    Thank you for sharing the findings :), will wait for comment from Dan at the other side.

    Perhaps it only affects some not all? I am running Webroot System Optimizer not CCleaner here.
