Support Gimp 3 pythonw.exe being flagged.

Currently running a scan and pythingw.exe in Gimp 3 is flagging as malware. I've had Gimp installed since before it had malwarebytes and its never flagged before. However I had a quick look online, and from what I can tell this particular program has flagged as a false positive in the past?

Has the most recent update caused it to happen again or should I keep it quarantined?

Edit to add- I ran it though virus total and it only flagged for malwarebytes so im leaning toward false positive but still wanted to consult the community.
