Mmh I have to investigate... Since I never heard anyone else reporting this and the binary is not build on my personal PC but via github actions, I'm pretty sure this is a false positive.

Are you getting this error with the 0.1.5 or with an older version, too? (I think 0.1.5 is not linked in the readme, but you can download it on the releases page).

just tested 0.1.5. it seems fine. The built-in Window 10 Defender did not complain.

Mmh ok... strange. I'll try to find out what's going on, but this one will be hard to reproduce.
