i tried extracting the file from the gentool folder but my virus scanner keeps removing it as a threat.

 

Has anyone experience this?

Have you tried setting it as an exeptions? 

as our files are not a threat. and there should not be anything to be worried about. 

If the issue keeps presisting, then please try to explain exactly what you are doing to the files.

Hi Edvin2090,

 

Thank you for your swift reply.

 

I want to play C&C generals online with my pals. Hence, from the guide on this website, it was stated to paste d3d8.dll file into the game root folder. As such, i downloaded the gentool. But then i try to extract the files, my virus scanner immediately removes it cos it suspects it as a threat.

 

Regards

May I ask where you got the game from, as different location different cause for the problem.

greetings mate,
the reason gentool and especially this .dll is  flagged as a threat is that some bits in gentool are written in a coding language which get flagged instantly due to its hostory of being used for malware a second reason is that the exact dll you are refeerring to is used via a dll injector which will inject into your game and will work over the exxecutable and therfore will be flagged due to its way of working since it runs over the ain ecevutable and can modify slash observer it. 

depending on what av you are using you can click on more information and resotre the file or you deactivate your av during the installation 

also your av will have a accesible virus container slash containment pr quarantine area where you can select the file and restore/allow  it 

i tried extracting the file from the gentool folder but my virus scanner keeps removing it as a threat.

 

Has anyone experience this?

 

 

Regards

addding to this it seems like you are using the manual install way of gentool which is not really nesessary if you are using the origin version of the game   if this is not the case (i mean the use of the manual install) than you can ignore this message here

I also had this issue, and sort of fixed it. I disabled mcafee and put the file in manually. it worked then, but after a reboot now it does not. the file is there, but Gentool does not come up when i start the game (generals Zero Hour). 

 

any advice?

can you create a own topic and tell  me where your game is from and what steps exactly you have done?  makes my work easier
