Just received my EG4 battery updater and when I plugged it in via USB to my PC to copy the firmware files Windows Defender immediately flagged the device as containing two Trojan/Worm files. I immediately unplugged the device.   Anyone else have this issue and are these devices known to ship from the factory with viruses?

Thats normal for any anti-virus to assume something is a Trojan once its not known as a trusted source by the anti-virus.  But as long you get it from eg4 then its fine
