I am well aware of VirusTotal claiming this is malicious.

Submitted for manual review to Microsoft 300611241-3533be85-0039-47ff-af07-aa96fefc3e2f

Any posts mentioning this will be deleted. I am very aware.

You have 3 options

  1. Trust it (I don't care if you do or not)
  2. Build it from source
  3. Keep Edge installed

@ShadowWhisperer Maybe sign EXE files for sure with Cert or via GPG. Reference: https://stackoverflow.com/a/49696454 I using ESET from years. No EXE false positives. 20240210-1707593882 Malwarebytes sees malware in probably everything not valid signed or repacked. https://www.reddit.com/r/dotnet/comments/qszqbf/malwarebytes_false_positive/ and more https://www.google.com/search?q=malwarebytes+false+positive+reddit

Is it possible to find out what sequence of commands the application is built with? I would be very grateful.
