### UniGetUI Version
2026.2.7
### Windows version, edition, and architecture
Windows 11 Pro 25H2
### Describe your issue
When I download the latest version's zip file, Windows Security immediately quarantines it, saying it has a trojan.
### Steps to reproduce the issue
- Windows 11 machine with no update pending
- Windows Security running with all default options
- Download the zip of the latest release [UniGetUI v2026.2.7](https://github.com/Devolutions/UniGetUI/releases/tag/v2026.2.7)
Windows Security immediately quarantines it, saying it has a trojan.

### Relevant information
Hope you understand that just saying "it's false positive" or "you can read the code in the repo" isn't enough. Hopefully this can be addressed in more details and next release does not have this problem.

Research direction
Start with the UniGetUI v2026.2.7 ZIP release and the attached Windows Security quarantine report; no source file or test is identified. Reproduce the report on Windows 11 Pro 25H2 with Windows Security's default options and inspect the release artifact. Done means the detection cause is addressed and a subsequent release no longer triggers the reported quarantine.
