LM Studio may possibly be infected with sophisticated malware.

I'm no expert, just a tinkerer who messed with models at home, so correct me if this is a false positive, but it doesn't look that way to me. Anyone else get this? showed up 3 times when i did a full search on my main drive.

I was able to delete them with windows defender, but might do a clean install or go to linux after this and do my tinkering in VMs.

It seems this virus messes with updates possibly, because I had to go into commandline and change some update folder names to get windows to search for updates.

Dont get why people are downvoting me. i loved this app before this and still might use it in VMs, just wanted to give fair warning is all. gosh the internet has gotten so weird.
