Thanks for prompt reply. There is no error to be screenshot sir, the problem is everytime this lsp file created our AV detect it as a virus. So i just came up to a solution of preventing this file to solve the issue.

Hi,

Are you creating you own lisp, and the AV is detecting them as virus and blocking them? If yes then you need to exclude the particular files from being detecting by AV.

This is the LT forum, LT is not capable of using Lisp although your question isn't directly about Lispit would still be better served in the dedicated forum where it is less confusing for the community 🤔

Where is this file being found, which folder on your system? There are several posts about an actual virus using that name. So your AV is doing its job well, but these aren't created by AutoCAD. It does sound as though you have a problem that your AV should be dealing with.
