    Hey I'm passing on a message from Avast I've received the past two days right after logging into Windows 10. I'm assuming this is a false positive so I reported it as such to Avast. I figured I would make the staff/mods aware of this.

    Yes, this is a known situation, a false-positive.
    Avast seems to do the same for many other games too.

    Please click the 'Report as False Positive' button.

    If you need confirmation, you can double-check the .exe with VirusTotal.
