I am not running any additional anti-virus software.
Windows 10 is detecting scp.exe as a possible Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.C!ml
Also, an additional 14 out of 71 engines on Virus Total (https://www.virustotal.com) are detecting a trojan.
It detects the following:
file: C:\Program Files (x86)\SCP\SCP.exe
file: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\SCP\SCP.lnk
startup: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\SCP\SCP.lnk
I am not an expert on this, but I don't think it necessarily means that there is something wrong with the program itself, it might have to do with the things the program is doing. I do think it is important to check how to prevent the application from being marked as a trojan.
