Bug: Virus/trojan detected by Windows Defender

Is this urgent?

Yes

What parts are affected

Frontend

What is the client version

0.6.9

What platform are you using

Windows

What's the problem 🤔

When downloading the zip file for Windows, the browser as well as the operating system block the file. Vivaldi (Chromium) tells me it contains a virus, Windows Defender says it found a trojan inside (see screenshot, sorry that it's in German).

I don't think anything inside Kitchenowl is actually dangerous or a trojan, but I don't feel safe unblocking this and won't use it on my computer until the false detection is resolved somehow.

😮

I was a bit surprised to see that. But after some searching, it seems common with flutter apps.

It seems like no other AV flags it though: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/29ee42dfd149fec9bd0460ad1b976cc36f5621f51c2d51f952c4d14ba82f8d51

I'll try to find a solution for it, but maybe someone else has more information about it.

Install Linux 😛

Jokes aside, here is a discussion from the flutter project that might help
