Just downloaded the zip and got a detection soon after. I'm not sure if this is useful, first time actually using github, but hopefully this helps.

To say it nicely, windows defender will flag any executable that doesn't come from either a trusted source or is singed with a certificate. To get one you need to pay a lot of money to micorsoft for one and let the review it. I am nog going to do that ofc. This stackoverflow awnser explains how and what I would need to do: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48946680/how-to-avoid-the-windows-defender-smartscreen-prevented-an-unrecognized-app-fro/66582477#66582477

You should be able to trust the program in your antivirus software (windows defender will just do a popup). If you do not trust my program for whatever reason, that's fine. A solution to that would be to install python from https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3124/ and install the dependencies with pip3. Then you can just run the source code on it's own. Tldr: I can't do much about that due to windows being annoying.
