Hello there, I am daily user of Adobe Reader where I add images and words to documents and then upload it to my website. I was scrolling around and I saw an advertisement of Foxit Reader like how it is better than Adobe Reader. I downloaded it but when I was opening it the windows defender removed it saying that it is a virus. I researched about it the things I saw was this is a common issue and another problem is that it doesn't work on different OS. There are times where I am working on both windows and Linux OS at the same time. My question is it really a virus or it's just a bug in the defender and can it simultaneously work on both OS with no problem?
