After downloading Unofficial-Realtek-UAD-generic-6.0.9576.1.7z Microsoft Defender removed the zip stating it was a threat. It appears to think it is a trojan. I haven't seen this happen with previous releases.

I saw some AVs throw false positives at ultra compressed 7-zip archives. Sophos is most accurate. It detects NirCMD as PUA,, but it has a legitimate use here.
