Originally created by @NickeManarin on GitHub (Jan 11, 2019).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/NickeManarin/ScreenToGif/issues/428

Some users are reporting a detection by anti virus software.

It started with Windows Defender, yesterday: Trojan:Win32/Emali.A!cl
Right now, Windows Defender stopped thinking that this app is a virus. (Check your virus definition, update if possible)

But another AV engine called "Rising" started report this right now: Trojan.Emali!8.10004 (CLOUD)

I'm no longer getting these false positives.

Again, but this time with the zipped portable version:

Trojan:Win32/Vigorf.A

Checking for new virus definitions won't solve this time. I uploaded that file to Microsoft as a false positive detection. Let's see what they say about it.

Apparently, now it's not being detected anymore, at least with virus definition v1.283.2893.0:

id 1
id 2

@NickeManarin

The problem is not in the program but in the trashy antiviruses and their incessant false positives.
