Same issue I responded about here: https://github.com/ffxiv-teamcraft/ffxiv-teamcraft/issues/2925#issuecomment-2394753926

False positive! Excluding localappdata in your antivirus and possibly explicitly allowing the installer should do the trick. You may also wish to follow up with the procedure for a clean install here, in the event that it refuses to install properly: https://wiki.ffxivteamcraft.com/troubleshooting#i-believe-i-may-have-a-dirty-install-and-need-to-fully-remove-all-remnants-of-older-versions-of-team

Yeah, i figured.. i've submitted all the related files to Avast for additional "analysis", that they're false positives. Hopefully it helps :/
