I just had my anti-ransomware software (Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware BETA 0.9.15.416) attempt to quarantine and delete Subnautica.exe. Of note is that this happened the moment that I tried to save the game after building a cyclops, which I had yet to even enter. Predictably, the save file seems to be corrupted, as it's now endlessly stuck on loading world tiles, and shows the thumbnail of my previous successful save.
This is also the first save I've made using the latest experimental (37546), so that may be a factor. I haven't had Malwarebytes or any other software target Subnautica before this, or at least it didn't announce that it was doing so. I have previously experienced the "cyclops not appearing on game load" bug, but that didn't come up with any notices.
Unfortunately, while I took a screenshot of the notice, I stupidly accepted Malwarebyte's request to restart my computer before actually saving the screenshot. The listed cause was something along the lines of "malware_generic", for what it's worth.
