Bug Report OBS .72+ 64 bit exe issue

[Freshtoast]

Whenever I try to extract the 64 bit version of obs, file "obs64.exe" always extracts as "trz52D6.tmp". Happens on multiple computers (that are running windows 7 64 bit).

What are you using to extract it? You should be able to open the zip in Windows and even just copy-paste the folders.

used winrar and 7-zip and got the same result. Just a note that every other file extracts fine, its just that one file

Edit: So I actually got an error report from winzip. Here is what it says

Extracting to "C:\Users\MyName\AppData\Local\Temp\wzca60\"
Use Path: yes Overlay Files: yes
Extracting bin\64bit\obs64.exe
Could not set file attributes (2).

Okay, I figured it out. Aparently avast is labeling that particular exe as something that is dangerous to the computer. Don't know if I am an isolated case or not on this.

Ah, some Antivirus programs don't like that OBS has DirectX hooking in it, which is necessary for game capture.
