Antivirus False Positive Notice

Some antivirus software may flag XAMPP components as potentially unwanted because the package includes server software (Apache, MySQL) and administrative tools that can modify system behavior. These are false positives.

XAMPP contains absolutely no malware, adware, or spyware. If your antivirus blocks the installer, we recommend temporarily disabling real-time scanning during installation or adding the XAMPP directory to your antivirus exclusion list.
