My first post here, so please excuse my ignorance.
I updated Qt (a complex programmer IDE) and Webroot claims that qmake.exe contains W32.Rogue.gen .
I use this software for years.
What should I do, to assure, the findings are correct?

Hello Henry, Welcome to the Webroot Community Forum.:D
 
I looks like the software that has been updated needs to be Whitelisted by Webroot.

Hello Dave (ProTruckDriver)!
Thank you. Glad to be here.
Webroot saved my comp, more than once. And using the "Support Ticket" prompted a very fast response, wow just wow.
Now, they will investigate the log files, and I will post the results.

Update.
The Support Service has qmake.exe whitelisted, and suggested those are (there a many instances of qmake.exe within Qt) save to use.   ❤️
