I had problems with Windows Defender finding a false positive in the output of a product I was working on. This was an EV code signed MSI package with signed exe. This eventually inflamed SmartScreen and despite getting the thing sorted as a false positive by the AV guys it took 3 months for it to stop being flagged.

After working on Microsoft dev for ~20 years, 2019 was the last thing I touched. I handed everything else over and moved on. I will NEVER deal with that company again. Nothing but fucking shit for that entire time. The grass /is/ greener on the other side.
