Has anyone got to the bottom of whether jackett has a trojan or not?

So a couple of months ago, windows defender started flagging some jackett files as trojan, it’s still flagging it for me. Devs told everyone to just ignore it. Do we have a consensus about it?

First I’m hearing of this, but I run it in docker on Linux.

github.com/Jackett/Jackett/issues/16352 Seems to only affect windows and is a false positive which seems reasonable I didnt even know they built it for windows

Sound normal for Windows, back when I was using Windows I usually had to whitelist torrent clients in Windows Defender otherwise the torrent client .exe would disappear randomly during a virus scan. It was always some sort of false positive.

3rd party issue. No action needed by jackett.
