Kaspersky decided to eat OOTP

Quite an interesting development, while playing OOTP it decided that something in the game was malware and killed it, now I need to reinstall

It did it again. After all its nonsense I reinstalled, resumed my game, and when it got to the playoffs it freaked out and crashed it and demolished a bunch of files. I think it's related to a recent Kasp update, I'm going to have to change my settings to make OOTP a trusted app or something

I don't use Kapersky myself but it should have a quarantine folder which can restore any deleted files, especially any saved leagues. Definitely looks like the settings need to be changed.

I added it as a trusted application and was able to finish the season. So far, so good
