Hi everyone, joined to track any announcements regarding limactl being flagged as malware and deleted on macOS, making using any version of Rancher Desktop impossible. Would hate to have my team revert to Docker Desktop for Mac.

That seems to be a bug of macOS. I don’t think there is something we can do, and even Docker for macOS seems a victim of the same issue. https://github.com/docker/for-mac/issues/6456

Hmmm I've force updated virus definitions and it hasn't deleted limactl yet, so maybe that's fixed indeed.

👍 What is your virus scanning software?

Cisco's AMP / Secure Endpoint connector (forgot which marketing name is the current one)

TIL Cisco purchased ClamAV nearly a decade ago 👀 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clam_AntiVirus Probably they share the code and the virus database under the hood
