Virus Warning because of flow launcher blocks it from running

[ulspot]

Hi,
today my anti virus program (ESET Endpoint) warned me and blocked flow launcher from running.

This is the Scan Log:

Do you know anything about this or can you help?

This was the first thing I’ve done. No response until now.

Ok. It seems to be resolved by ESET. Everything is working fine again.
