I know this is probably a false positive however is there any idea for what causes it?

Wow, it's getting mad about the Microsoft Store version. That's new. That version is digitally signed by Microsoft, so there's no good reason for an antivirus to flag it.

Thank you for the reply, Yeah, I know it's weird.

It is only on our new corporate image of the laptops that has this weird new security suite (before the new OS it was not flagged, my friend also said that it got flagged by his computer a few months ago while he had the new image, and I didn't)

I trust your software and I know it is not malicious. Could be the chromium/electron or something weird. It could simply be an "AI detection".

I've had an antivirus flag the 1996's game Rocket Jockey exe as a malicious thing due to these AI systems (though for its defense it is off by default).

For some reason "Monitorian" is not flagged by that software so for now I use your awesome program at my home computer and that one on my work laptop.

Best Regards and thank you for this amazing software! Yossi

Edit: I can try out the Git version just to check that it is not something in the Store version if you want. My friend also had the store version back then.
