Now this is Microsoft madness heightened! Microsoft Defender now thinks The file eloquence_host32.exe is a virus. It keeps removing the file, making Eloquence for NVDA 64-bit virtually useless. I tried re-downloading and re-installing Eloquence V12, but the file gets removed as soon as I install it. @fastfinge
@amir@fastfinge Can either of you provide a link to the add-on in question so I can take a look? I'm curious if there's something actually weird about that executable.
@matt@amir Also, don't look at the build process! That code was handed to me in the repo I forked from. And he got it from whomever wrote the original addon in like 2017. And people have just kept endlessly hacking on what was already terrible. I think the original fear was that the repo that hosted the original addon with the eloquence dll files would get taken down. So someone hacked up a way to download and patch an old version of the addon. But then other people stopped caring about that at some point. So now everything is terrible. If you must build from scratch, just run build.cmd and wait, while trying not to think about it. Hey, at least you know it wasn't written by AI! AI would have written better code.
