447476 files scanned, 0 threats found.

UPDATE: I reported the false positive to Microsoft. (No idea how long it takes from doing that to the virus definitions getting updated.)

I agree it is a false positive...Perhaps it would be wise to put a note on the Free42 wen site about this very issue...Not all who go there read this forum, and it would give a user the chance to ignore the warning from Defender and override it should they choose to.
