This gets tagged as a virus by Windows Security #6

By default, this executable gets flagged as a virus, making it hard to use on Windows without shutting down Windows Security: image

Any clue what might be causing that?

This is known as a "false positive" because the security tool is flagging something as malware that is not malware. Please submit the package to the vendor as a false positive.
