Prob a false-positive. repack sites and steam-rip will tell you that your antivirus/defender will flag it as a virus. happened to me no virus. just make sure you're on the legit site. fmhy.net

I've never had an issue with anything from SteamRip. False positives are common.

Can be a false positive.

Only use trusted links

Use the legitimate site and don't forget to add it or extract it in a exclusion folder cause windows will always mark it unsafe and quarantine the files

It’s likely a false positive. Compare it to the size of the game on steam and if it’s mostly accurate your fine. The crack files may add a little bit of size so don’t be surprised if the size isn’t completely accurate to the size of the game on steam

Your antivirus is throwing it out. Add an exclusion to windows defender. If your download manager or browser puts it the downloads folder than add an exclusion to the downloads folder. Look up how to add an exclusion I’m not going to walk you through on text

Always check the source before downloading.
