Microsoft Defender in Windows 11 is showing this file as having a Trojan Horse. https://github.com/Ty-Matthews-VisualStudio/Wally/blob/main/Binaries/WallyD_157.exe

What's the name of the detection? If it starts with H or AI, it's probably just a false positive.

The binary file has been deleted from the repository. Checking a copy from the past repo, WallyD_157.exe dated 07/24/2023 on Windows 10 and 11 Defender on this date (2024.05.05) shows no malware detected. No malware was detected on a scan on VirusTotal.com (hash: 225ba6b0666d6ea44b1bb1fce838a9797c3ef00164ceb29aacc8e8780a4a11d4). I concur with Paril that this was probably a false positive by Defender and this issue can be closed.
