Windows gave me a Malicious File warning when trying to run 3.6
Version 3.51 is fine. Don't upgrade

No idea why it's suddenly flagging as a threat, you can see all the changes made between the two versions here 🤷

It might be because of the nuget package https://github.com/bitbeans/diskdetector-net used to detect SSDs vs HDDs but I don't see why that would be the case either.

Edit: Running it myself, it's down to 7 warnings from your original 12, so I think it's just a case of being flagged as a false positive while the virus scanners catch up?

In fact if I scan the monolithic file (which just pre-packages all the .NET runtime files and has literally no other differences) then the total flags is back down to 2.

CompactGUI.zip

I upgraded to .NET 9 and the false positives go away 🤷

I'm reopening it for now as it's still an issue others might face :)

.Net 9 is STS (short term support) and have only one year of support, IMHO it's better to stay on .Net 8 for now and upgrade to .Net 10 when available, it will be LTS (like v6 and v8) and will offer 3 years of support.

Almost everyone already have .Net 8 installed because it's used in a lot of project, please reconsider the need for .Net 9.

If this was an enterprise program then I'd agree with you, but it's for casual end-users so it's not a big deal.

It's still annoying to have to install .Net 9 only for this program. It's true that we can use CompactGUI.mono.exe though.
