Trying to install Intel GPU Driver DIRECT FROM INTEL Triggers Norton 360 as Threat
I have 2 ARC A series GPUs in 2 machines - an A380, and an A770. It happens on both pc's, both with Norton. Tried turning off smart protection, Norton still blocked the installs. I believe it has to do with the use of Powershell in the install program gfx_win_101.8247.exe package.
I've not had issues before when using the auto updater or the Intel Graphis Software App.
Please advise. Thanks in advance....
Dave

Should have included PC info. Both PC's are on Windows 11 Pro, 25H2. One (5700X AMD CPU and ARC A770 GPU) has 64GB Ram, the second 5600X AMD CPU and ARC A380 GPU) has 32GB Ram. Have had both machines for a couple of years with no prior problems of this sort (anti-virus issues).
