Additional context

Hi, Bitdefender is notoriously bad at flagging winutil incorrectly as malware. Most likely this has to do with some part of the heuristics engine detecting "suspicious activity" like editing the C:/WIndows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts file (which can be used to pretty much overwrite where your computer goes when opening a specific DNS Name. This functionality is also used by malware but in the case of the Adobe tweak it's used to pretty much blackhole the Adobe queries. We really cannot do anything about this kind of detection. (Otherwise, we would have to start using the same AV/EDR evasion techniques as the bad guys)
The only option we have would be to remove the tweak altogether. (Which would be a shame for all the people where the AV doesn't flag it)

Hope this helps. I will /close this issue as there is nothing we can do right now
