You haven't been "hit with a malware". You downloaded and ran an installer (SpotX) that uses a powerful system interpreter (Powershell) to modifiy an application (Spotify). Your antivirus decided that it was "suspicious behavior" and flagged the whole operation as malware but in the end it's just an "unauthorized mechanic" getting its hands on the engine. If your computer knowledge is in between running an administrator level program and not knowing what it implies security-wise, probably better ASK what's happening than crying "Malware" wolf because your antivirus told you so while you were tampering with the system. |

I use the copyright Windows 10 with Defender by Microsoft. Run SpotX without turn off Defender. Isn't the world want to share everything on internet? |

This is a false positive. Spotx pisses off the anti-virus because Spotx is changing the files for Spotify. Edit: spitx changed to Spotx. |

Hi
Just want to let you guys know that I got hit by a malware today from SpotX. My antivirus defended it. I don't know if other people have been going through the same. Did you just keep using SpotX? I uninstalled it as of right now..
