I downloaded the latest version to edit a world and upon trying to start the program it was immediately flagged as a FileRepMalware by my Avast Anti-Virus

DesktopOS: Windows 10

This is just a false positive. You will have to let your antivirus know that it is fine to run. If you don't feel comfortable running it you can run from the source code. @Podshot there isn't anything you know of that we can do to solve this?

From what I've investigated, we would need to upload each build that triggers a false positive to their reporting form, I'll see if there's another/better approach

The only other way would be to spend the $$$ on an EV certificate which apparently only corporations can get which makes it even more expensive even if you go the S corp route or find another developer so you can form a LLC.
