A small test program in Visual Studio 19 tripping Avira as HEUR/APC threat

Hello,

While I am practicing C-Language programming in Visual Studio 2019, compiled executable practice.exe causes the Avira to catch and delete this file for no obvious reasons. Each time I use VS, I have to shut Avira so that the practice can go on my computer.

Contents of practice.c are given below.

 

#include <stdio.h>

void main()
{
char a = 'a';
printf("Hello world %c\n", a);
}

  Hello,

  you can put the executable itself or the directory that VC is working in into the exclusions of Avira to ensure it's no longer detected. 

  Here's a detailed instruction on how to do this:
