My understanding was also that this was not a false positive, but a functional windows virus which would infect other executables. The virus could spread to a user's main PC if they ever transferred executables from the emulated environment. This article is missing some really important information - talking about "alleged" false flags without bothering to verify whether the dev actually shipped malware. I'd argue that's the most important fact about the whole situation and the article doesn't resolve it either way, even though it's a matter of fact and easy to verify.

The thing is, it wasn't a false positive. It was a virus in the testd3d.exe file that could spread to other files within a container and then to a PC if you transferred anything like save files. Bruno wasn't being attacked, he was called out for ignoring the problem for months and closing all Github issues just saying "false positive", then finally fixing it and straight away he paused development. All he had to do was to not ignore the Github pull requests and actually remove the virus infected file that almost certainly was there accidentally.

Id love an android window emulator... if Android had powerful enough of hardware to support it....
