Not sure why but the setigraphics component is getting cylance protect angry and it gets quarantined.
Can somebody please help.
After it gets quarantined it obviously breaks the app.
Thanks

Probably what's called a "false positive".
The science apps have lots of code, so it doesn't take much for a string of characters to match something in the virus detector list.

The recommended cure is to exclude the BOINC sections from virus scanning.
