Get rid of Avast my guy, thats the problem here.
Just use Windows Defender, delete Avast. Honestly I’d just reinstall windows without it to get rid of the avast files. Unless there’s a program to delete the extra files.
Behavior Shield sound like it‘s trying to protect you from yourself.
“Executing cmd MIGHT be dangerous”
Use Microsoft Defender instead, it’s pretty capable and not as annoying and bloated.
your problem is called avast
Uninstall that shit and go malware bytes trial
Virus Scanners are really pointless for Years now. With how secure Browsers and Windows are you really have to be stupid to get a Virus.
MF on their way to say common sense is enough.
[What everyone is saying.](https://helpdeskgeek.com/windows-10/what-is-idp-generic-and-how-to-safely-remove-it-on-windows-10/)
Command prompt (cmd.exe) haa been an integral part of Windows since its inception. Its not a threat and you should change your threat protection software to something less crap.
Haha got rid of the virus. i.e avast🤡
Your using avast
It’s literally malware
Yes you should be worried, you have a virus that has successfully convinced you it isn’t a virus. It’s called Avast.
Such r/feedthememes bait
Any AVG antivirus enjoyers here?
Damn ive used avast for so long and always hated them for the scammy shit (WeVe DeTeCtEd SoMeThInG sLoWiNg dOwn your PC)
Will def delete when i get home (seriously who the hell even made avast without getting called our for scam messages?)
Unless the application called cmd.exe had been replaced with a virus. The cmd.exe application is very safe.
Avast may have flagged it because scammers use cmd.exe to convince their victims that they have a virus or something. Scammers usually run netstat or tree commands for their performance with their victims.
just use Kaspersky. way back torrent sites are active which many files have virus. i tested eset, avast avg. Kaspersky is the best on my experience. specially if you do some not beginner things on the internet.
They confirmed it as a false positive in the forums and said it would be in the next update.

Avast is the problem here ,just dont install any third party antivirus they are all scam and will slow down your pc , just stick with windows defender its enough
For the uninitiated; why is Avast bad?
“More threats may be lurking!”
​
That’s where the message started to scream: “Buy this product, NOW!”
I would not jump to the conclusion that it’s a false positive as cmd.exe is often abused by malware to avoid detection, most often by cryptominers.
Do you happen to use cracked/pirated software or games? They are the most common way I see people getting infected with this type of stuff.
Does Defender work with sites like Streameast, avast keeps giving me a blacklist error
