Lots of people getting virus warnings on the latest file, but not old version? See indieretronews comments :) cheers 

I'm getting mixed signals, some people are having such issues with older version, some have it other way around. Most people are fine with no alerts at all. It's a new exe so it's probably not "reputable" and triggers  some oversensitive setups. Other than buying certificate to sign all my releases there is nothing much I can do unfortunately.

Thanks for the update, ill let them know ;) - I've got no issues btw

Ignore Defender: for unknown reasons the ZIP gets deleted as a false positive, but if you download it (temporary disable Defender) and just extract the files with 7zip, BandiZIP, NanaZip... then re-enable Defender and analyze the extracted files... well, it will report 0 threats.

MS has a report false positive form: Submit a file for malware analysis - Microsoft Security Intelligence

I tried that just now. Win 10 and Defender. Checked the file and it still detects as a virus.

Looks like packing it as rar fixed the issue

Perfect, cheers :)
