Python.exe detected as virus

Python.exe was detected as a vírus and the software don't allow to restore.

I excluded the file by accident and AVG don't allow to reinstall in same directory, even after I created an Exception the file.

Now, I cannot work in my projects.

Thank you so much, I regret to buy the product.

I will return to Avast.

Hello Ivan,

We sincerely apologize for  the inconvenience caused.
We request you to disable AVG Protection temporarily by following the instructions as mentioned in this article: http://avgread.me/1GnMD3N and then reinstall the Python application.
Once done with that please enable AVG Protection and add the installed path of Python application to AVG's exception.
