You might want to submit your file to MS so they can tune. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/filesubmission

Microsoft Defender can be sometimes very aggresive when it sees a program that is not signed and is not widely known.

If you have concerns, i have uploaded my executables to VirusTotal https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/5a07915d313ce2cc75bf8454ddedc12874d98b194af25247039021ecf2ec257a) and apart from one obscure antivirus, it was not marked as malicious by anything else.

Thanks for the Microsoft link, i will see what i can do.

Oh yeah Im sure it's a false positive, i more just wanted to make sure you knew it was happening in case you get reports.

This time i uploaded it few days ahead and then tested it on another computer and it did not block the application. So hopefully this is no longer a problem.
