Hello Fortinet Team,

I would like to report a False Positive occurring in FortiClient. The antivirus engine is flagging and quarantining legitimate .jar files that belong to Microsoft Power Automate Desktop.

These files are required by the Microsoft application to interact with Java-based interfaces for automation purposes.

Software: Microsoft Power Automate Desktop Flagged Files:

PAD.JavaBridge.jar
PAD.JavaBridge.A11y.jar

Some of the File Hashes (SHA256) involved:

EB935EB8D28CDBA566CBACDA023E02FCD4A9DB0535893B5B8699E7...

I have attached a screenshot ("Captura de pantalla 2026-07-20 110922.png") showing the multiple detections and the exact hashes provided by the FortiClient logs.

Could you please review these files and update the definitions to whitelist them?

Thank you.

Only FOrtiGuard Labs team deal with classifications, and they are not on this Forums AFAIK. Your best bet, I guess, would be to either open a technical ticket with TAC, for them to escalate the issue to the FortiGuard team, or fill this lengthy form to dispute software classification, even though, it is more tuned to the software authors (Microsoft in your case), than end users https://www.fortiguard.com/faq/classificationdispute also more general form anything AV-related at https://www.fortiguard.com/faq/antivirus-contact
