I just downladed UMS-Windows-14.12.0-x86_64. As always I ran a virus check using F-Secure antiviral software. I got the following alert: https://www.f-secure.com/v-descs/heuristic.shtml. Hence I deleted the package. What is wrong?

I checked it on Virustotal and it gets flagged there too. I even checked the V15 alpha I am testing and that is flagged too.
From what I can tell this is a false positive and is common for "Bkav Pro" which can even flag windows files apparently.
There are plenty of results on google about this and found this on another program on github where they link to various threads about it.

I'll make an issue about this so the devs are aware but I don't think there is anything that can be done about it.

Yeah we definitely don't have any viruses. We are completely open source, no hidden nasties. Maybe you can do us a favor and use their "submit a sample" functionality https://www.f-secure.com/en/support/submit-a-sample

Good evening

I am glad to hear. I think I shall send them the entire UMS-Windows-14.12.0-x86_64 file to get this false alarm down.
