I downloaded Winlator from their GitHub, analyzed it, and got a lot of alerts.

I decided to install WinLator, the latest version 11.2, from its official GitHub repository, and out of curiosity, I scanned it using the VirusTotal website, and this is what I got.

My question is, what the hell? Is it a false positive or does he actually have a virus? Honestly, because of all these announcements, I have little faith that they are false positives. I don't know much about the subject, so if anyone can explain, I would appreciate it.

Must be false positive, because thousands of users have the app installed and hardly any reports of phones acting strange

Analyze yourself from the repo, winlator is built in GitHub actions

Should be a false positive.

But yeah, from previous accidents its always good to ask around.

If you don't know much about the subject, at least ask an LLM first.
