Honestly this is pretty annoying. At this point, I'm not exactly sure on what to do. Just extremely annoying I guess. Ill probably look into at least something in regards to this, but I understand the concern. This is really the only reason why Assist is open sourced.
Just ran a scan myself with the latest version, and it only showed 2. I would redownload (here)[Https://assistval.com/] just in case, but otherwise I am unsure.

Microsoft Defender detected and quarantined the Assist.exe file within the portable package as a Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.A!ml. Scanning it with VirusTotal gives 31/73 vendors detecting it as some form of trojan. Even by false positive standards, this is a bit too suspicious.
