When I download the exe file from release, firefox, edge and other browser alert me for potential virus.
Found #1210 that this is false positive.

Suggestion for clarification:

  • Like in UPX issue tracker they pinned it for easy viewing.
  • Release unpacked of the tool.

Thanks for this wonderful tool, just got a bit startled when virustotal report 35 hits.

It might be better to put a note in the README next to the download link to the Windows binary?

Yes, anything will do as long as there is some clarification with the situation.

Would you like to add that note to the README?
