VirusTotal drop: W32.AIDetectMalware by Bkav Pro

I recently switched operating systems and was planning to download CherryTree for Windows when I came across this.

I really don't think CherryTree contains any kind of malicious code. It's probably a false positive, but I think it should be fixed with some testing.

Thans for reporting @Annoder I'm curious if you run the virus analysis on the portable folder (after download and extraction) is it still unhappy? Maybe we can understand what exactly inside of the installer exe is not happy with.
The installer exe is generated with inno setup script https://github.com/giuspen/cherrytree/blob/master/scripts/cherrytree.iss out of the portable folder.
The portable folder is generated with this script https://github.com/giuspen/cherrytree/blob/master/scripts/msys2_prepare_standalone.sh building on https://www.msys2.org/

Thanks for the clarification. I performed the virus scan directly on the .exe installer file.

In that case (being generated with a script) I don't understand VirusTotal's detection.
