I got another report about this being flagged as a suspicious (they said the exe file not the zip). They said they were running Windows 11 Pro 22H2....I still haven't been able to recreate this.

He said he tried running it anyway and after selecting the MER files the window just closed without displaying anything.
I'm not sure if that's Windows Defender trying to shut it down, or some other issue. I don't actually have any logging in the app. Might need to try and add some and do another release. See if I can get him to enable debug or trace level logging or something.
