Can confirm, my windows 11 also flags same file.

Same here. Bitdefender kicked in, wouldn't let me install it.

[edocastri]

Same here

[aaron-peloquin]

Confirmed, same here. May be a false positive, but will hold off on installing until I see this fixed to be safe

It's a false positive. It is fixed in the new version of the launcher!
You can always check on virustotal.com to have an extensive report on the issue and confirm there is no issue; it did have dozens of "suspect" behaviors detected. The solution is to allow it once you are sure it's safe. But even then, in case of misbehaviors, it would still be caught while executing.
