Windows Defender reports 4.0 as Trojan

[Soitora]

Simply downloading the files for 4.0 makes Windows Security to remove it

Is it windows 10, #37

Windows 11 Pro, 24H1

Windows 11 Pro, 24H1

Okay, I'll try to find the cause, most probably its false positive, but you say its only happening with 4.0 so worth looking

[Soitora]

Yeah, with the previous versions I've tried it hasn't reported anything as a Virus, only 4.0

The virusTotal report is clean https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url/00220f1464698c66f56725a63bac35f05fca728e25d18828e4fb229116dd4e86/detection

also I'm on win 11 and the defender scan shown clean.

[DineshSolanki]

I have sent the files to Microsoft as false positive detection(as their online scan shows a malware also), let's see if I get any reply
