first thing is i use windows 10 and on a dell laptop. for some reason powder toy is deleteing itself about 10% of the time i turn on my laptop. i had it happen to me about 4-5 times in the last 3 weeks. i have avast free antivirus and it says powder toy is not being detected as a virus. i also looked at my windows defender options and saw powder toy is ok. i made a exception on powdertoy on scan and it still deletes itself. its also not just the game. my stamps and stamp.def files and readme files and the lua multiplayer script go missing too. is anyone else haveing this problem? please help. it only started happining after i updated.

i have the powder toy folder in a folder called games  along with 23 other games. also it happens when i start up my computer from shutdown.

it happend again today and yes it deletes the contents of the folder but not the folder itself. also I have the multiplayer script.

yes. (update #1) i scaned my pc and found no virus's but found i had alot of corrupted system files. that may be why thats happining? however its only hapining to powder toy, and i did have a run in with i virus that gave me adware and bloatware but I was sure that i got rid of everything. I did a startup scan too to see if virus's are hideing in system files and....nothing. The virus should be gone from my pc. its been a month since I deleted the virus. (update #2) im going to keap the game in a different folder out of my games folder to see if it still deletes itself.(update #3) I had powder toy in the new folder now and it has not been deleted so i think thats the end of this post, however if powder toy starts deleteing itself again I will post a new update
