Ren'Py Threat or Error Pop-upHi there!
We've been made aware of the reoccurring issue for some players. When launching My Sweet! Housemate, some players may encounter a pop-up that falsely identifies the game as a threat or produces an error message.
We've found that this is caused by Microsoft no longer recognising the new build of Ren'Py (the engine My Sweet! Housemate uses) as a safe program. Ren'Py Tom (the creator of the engine) has already requested a change from Microsoft, but it will take some time for it to go through. https://github.com/renpy/renpy/issues/6089
We've made a list of temporary solutions that may work for some people:
1. Make sure your Windows Defender is updated to the latest version. You can find out how to on this page: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/defenderupdates
2. Try uninstalling and reinstalling the game. We've rolled back the patch with the newest build of Ren'Py, so reinstalling the 2.0 build might resolve the issue. Don't worry - all your progress is safe as it is stored in a separate folder.
3. If the above does not work, you can try creating an exclusion for My Sweet! Housemate folder in your Windows Defender.
You can create an exclusion by following these steps:
[olist]
Go to Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Security > Virus & threat protection.
Under "Virus & threat protection settings" select "Manage settings".
Under "Exclusions" select "Add or remove exclusions".
Select "Add an exclusion" and "Folder"
You can find the folder in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\My Sweet! Housemate".
[/olist]
We are closely following the news and will roll out a new patch as soon as possible. We appreciate everyone who brought our attention to this issue and will keep you all updated!

My Sweet Housemate is an interactive visual novel style game that puts you into the shoes of a homeless adult struggling to find affordable housing in America. You're hit with a stroke of good - or maybe bad - luck when you finally find a totally not suspicious rental listing for a room in an apartment. The only catch is that your new landlord, Seung-min, seems to have something off about him.
