Windows Defender flags OE as security threat when built from source #594

Starting this morning, Windows Defender has been flagging the OE executable as a virus for containing HackTool:Win32/Gamehack!pz.

This only appears to happen when compiling from source and not when the installer is used.

I'm assuming this isn't an actual issue, but wondering if you've seen anything like this before or know where that particular flagged software is coming from.

Looks like this only happens for Release builds. Happens on both Windows 10 and 11

Confirmed I'm getting the same as of this morning on my Windows 11 machine. Looking into this.
