As title says. I know this program has had some issues with false positives from AV's. But this I see as an issue as the version from the official source https://github.com/avrdudes/avrdude/releases does not trigger AV's. So there is something specifically wrong with the version included.

I checked the portable but the installer may have the same issue.

avrdude.exe included in avrdudess: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/3b997ae90291c5aa7e363d7900ddb9252cf4898215d35486774d9e051850e737 avrdude.exe 7.3 from official source: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/8097ef7b81e0f3fff09d100246ccc291a1f7407ea446a2048734a8453af3cdbd

Possibly bad heuristics. But why is the avrdude.exe included in this distro different from official

I see it does it with the official x86 too. I tested x64 My bad.
