BitDefender and WiseVector StopX flag it as malware! Had to exclude and its a FP because the software bootup looks like a malicious virus.

Don't have BD installed rn and Wisevector is deprecated. I was checking VT link of v2.0.1 and it still only has 1 and 2 detections for both files. Try to contact BD support for the FP.

Edit: Added "only" and VT links

I tried it this morning, and it looks handy alright. But I got warnings that these programs could not be updated. Something about not the correct number/version or something?

* Package Microsoft.VCRedist.2013.x64 is ignored
* Package ElectronicArts.EADesktop is ignored (No problem, it will update when I start the program.)
* Package Microsoft.DotNet.DesktopRuntime.6 is ignored
* Package Microsoft.VCRedist.2013.x86 is ignored
* Package Microsoft.DotNet.DesktopRuntime.7 is ignored

As you can see, I have set them to ignore after having tried several times. Is this normal behaviour, or did I do something wrong or forget something?

WingetUI, which is a third-party GUI utility tool for managing CLI package managers like Winget or Scoop, received its latest update a couple of days ago. The new update, version 2.1.0, brings performance improvements related to package imports and parsing as well as CLI outputs, adds a couple of major source-related upgrades, like source filtering as well as support for custom sources, and more.

There are new special icons for installed, blacklisted, and upgradable packages. The app now also comes digitally signed so Microsoft Defender and other anti-malware products should no longer block it.
